My thoughts…
Queen Bee is full of characters that you’ll either love or hate. That’s the key to a brilliant book – and Jane Fallon is great at constructing characters that you either want to boost up or tear down. There were some great twists in this book which kept it refreshingly unique and a different kind of contemporary fiction. This will make a great Summer read for 2020!
About the book…
Welcome to The Close – a beautiful street of mansions, where gorgeous Stella is the indisputable Queen Bee . . .
It is here that Laura, seeking peace and privacy after her marriage falls apart, rents a tiny studio. Unfortunately, her arrival upsets suspicious Stella – who fears Laura has designs on her fiancé, Al.
When Laura stumbles on the big secret Al is hiding, suddenly Stella’s perfectly controlled world, not to mention Laura’s future, are threatened.
Taking a chance on beating Al at his own twisted game, these two former strangers are fast becoming best friends.
But has Laura forgotten that revenge never comes without a sting in the tail?
