I would definitely start out by saving, check the trigger warnings (tisted below), I did not prior to reading, but I think it also helped me that I listened to audiobook so it wasn't exactly the same as reading the words in print. I still thought it was a great read. I was immediately drawn into Paris' storyline, allegedly framed for murdering her older movie star husband. The media, of course, has a field days Everyone is on my suspect list and then Paris receives letters from someone who saw her in the media and knows who she really is". The drama absolutely kept me on my toes, even when we started getting backstory from another similar murdet, from 20+ years previously committed by the ice Queen", I started guessing at the ending and couldn't put it down, up till the very end. If you can get through the triggers, it's worth the read. From one booknerd ty another, Happy Reading!
