This was a free download for me and it was pretty interesting. I think it was hard to pick a side for justice. In the end I figured how it all would play out but I think it was fun to see how the rich lived and how they could be tricked.
Straight up fun. Sometimes, you just need something ridiculous and entertaining.
Easy read. Funny at some points though more ridiculous than anything towards the end. The epilogue felt like the 'where are they now' summaries at the end of a 'based on a true story' movie - rushed and a bit lacking.

If you like zooming fast paced novels about white mom’s in California trying to make quick cash - all for you. I just found plot points to be tad unbelievable and the descriptions / characterization development of Annie’s autistic son Oscar felt out of place.
I totally went against ALL of my TBR for the month of January and I am SO happy that I did! Ha! I have had A WONDERFUL reading month! It has been a great start to 2019!
This is a book that I don’t quite remember how it got on my Kindle but I am SO happy that it did! This has to be one of the funniest and easiest reads I have had in a long while. I would put the genre as Chick-Lit and I am living for it!
This is the debut novel for Kathy Cooperman and I can’t wait to read more of what she has to come out. She might be an insta-buy from now on!
This book is all about best friend Annie and Sarah. They are living life like they always have. Sarah is a high powered lawyer while Annie is a stay-at-home mom with a PHD in Chemistry. Sarah is trying for kids but it seems that she put her career ahead of her life wants for too long and is going through the arduous process of EXPENSIVE IVF while still working 80 hour weeks. Annie has given her career a brief pause so that she can raise her three kids. She finds out from her middle child’s teacher that he has autism and need expensive therapy that they just can’t afford.
These two women are desperate to make quick cash to help afford the things that they need in order to start a family and to keep a family. With Sarah’s drop dead looks and Annie’s brains and knowledge of chemistry they decide to sell a “luxury” face cream to the wealthy and aging beauties in Annie’s bookclub. This seems like a win-win in Sarah and Annie’s books until Annie tries to mess with the innocent formula and adds a not-so-legal ingredient to the cream to give it a little oompf.
This book had me laughing, tearing up, and loving my best friend even more. I know that we would do anything for each other. This is a must read!

Why didn't I expect this book from this book?!
Really enjoyed this almost anti hero mum story.
I found myself hooked on were they going to get caught... what was happening!
Loved the portrayals of each character and really the story line was a big hit for me. Think this is my first book of the author but I'll try and read more!!

A serviceable Chick Lit story. If you can listen to the Audible book - do. Katherine Kellgren clearly had great fun reading this story and her pleasure is infectious!
I would say it is a nice weekend book book... it is not super interesting and the story is a bit superficial but you would not get bored
