My Review: I love Zoe’s writing, and for a short read, this book is packed with plenty details to make you want more.
After a few years, the people in town have forgotten all that’s happened. But Angelica has never forgotten. She’s spent this time coming up with the perfect revenge and this ball is the perfect moment.
I love getting to feel why Angelica was bent on this revenge , but she’s actually a great character and the details leading up was done just right.
