Jane does it again!

I loved this book - Jane paints pictures with words of realistic, well rounded characters who the reader ends up rooting for.

The main lady here is Laura, a recently divorced 40 something who ends up lodging in an exclusive community of upmarket properties - well her flat is “servants’ quarters” and not a £9m house! It’s about how Laura integrates into the group of well heeled ladies, with one in particular - Stella, the Queen Bee of the title.

I would highly recommend - as usual!

Having read all of Jane Fallon’s other books, this is the best one yet.

When Laura’s marriage breaks down, she finds herself living in a small garage apartment in a wealthy, prestigious neighborhood. Hard working and down to earth, Laura wonders just how she is going to fit in.

Across the street lives Stella, queen bee of all she pervades. Botoxed and bronzed, Stella is living the perfect life and planning the wedding of the year but somehow she thinks Laura has designs on her man and sends her to coventry.

When Laura discovers that someone is plotting Stella’s downfall, can she put her dislike for Stella to one side and persuade her to step out of her bubble and into the real world?

Great book. Great characters. An enjoyable and entertaining read.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3 fluffy easy to read stars.

This was an ok book, perfect for holidays or if you don't want to challenge yourself at all.

However it was a bit slow going and it took me a third of the book to really get into it. I struggled to gel with any of the characters and it was all just so implausible!

Thanks Netgalley and the Publisher and of course the author. I could not wait to start this book and devoured it in 2 days, a fantastic story, great characters. Loved it
