Pubday Book Review……Mustique Island by Sarah McCoy
It’s January 1972 but the sun is white hot when Willy May Michael’s boat first kisses the dock of Mustique Island. Tucked into the southernmost curve of the Caribbean, Mustique is a private island that has become a haven for the wealthy and privileged. Its owner is the eccentric British playboy Colin Tennant, who is determined to turn this speck of white sand into a luxurious neo-colonial retreat for his rich friends and into a royal court in exile for the Queen’s rebellious sister, Princess Margaret one where Her Royal Highness can skinny dip, party, and entertain lovers away from the public eye.
Willy May, a former beauty queen from Texas who is also no stranger to marital scandals seeks out Mustique for its peaceful isolation. Determined to rebuild her life and her relationships with her two daughters, When Willy May’s daughters arrive, they discover that beneath its veneer of decadence, Mustique has a dark side, and like sand caught in the undertow, their mother-daughter story will shift and resettle in ways they never could have imagined.
I loved every minute of this fabulous adventure with Queen Margaret and Willy May! It took me a couple of chapters for me to get really into the story but once I started I couldn't put it down! I couldn't wait to see what would happen next with Willy May, Hilly and Joanne. The descriptions are so vivid there were times I felt the hot sun on my face and the white sand between my toes! A beautifully written novel and an absolutely fantastic read!
Thank you Wunderkind PR, Sarah McCoy and William Morrow for sharing this absolutely amazing story!
