Can you guess what happens when a young, unwed, pregnant woman agrees to work as a nanny for a fabulously wealthy couple living on a private island?
Of course there are a couple of catches in this 'too good to be true' scenario...
If you can suspend enough disbelief at some of the outlandish circumstances and events that occur within the pages, you will be entertained for several hours with the twists and turns. Unfortunately, the last third of the book went way too far out there and I was ultimately disappointed.
The characters were just a bit too far. Quite stereotypical, it was apparent which ones we should dislike and distrust. I really didn't even like the main character and some of the things she managed to do really stretched credulity. But, that's fiction for you.
There's a lot going on with this story and I had to finish to see how it ended.
I was able to listen to the audio-book while also reading along in the e-book ARC provided by the publisher. I liked the narrator at first, but then the way she pronounced things and her uneven voices and accents drove me to eventually turn her off.
This is a standalone and is not part of any series.
