What did you say? A few women who either don't know each other or don't like each other? I wish I skipped. I am over the troupe of women hating each other. If these women were really friends they would have been more supportive. Lastly, all of your significant others bail the night of and will meet you tomorrow? Doubtful.

Absolutely loved this book. Every time you think you have everything figured out there’s a twist and the mystery is not quite solved. Really kept me wanting to keep reading and finish it.
