About this audiobook

Winner of 2020 Readers' Favorite Award for women’s fiction.

“A provocative, edgy page-turner. With whip-sharp prose, the characters are ingeniously crafted.” (Wall Street Journal best-selling author Kerry Lonsdale)

Tech executive Carly can’t wait to marry the man of her dreams. But her world is turned upside down when she discovers her fiancé is already wed to Ryn — her company’s top investor! Can the two women overcome heartbreak together?

Silicon Valley investor Ryn Brennan is on the verge of achieving everything she dreamed. She’s succeeded in the sexist venture capital world, has a supportive husband, and is about to close the deal of her career. Everything is going exactly as planned, until she meets her husband’s mistress, across the negotiating table.

Carly clawed her way back from being a teenage runaway to become an accomplished scientist, caring single mom, and co-founder of her startup. Once she marries her loving fiancé, she’ll secure the complete family she craves. But she’s blindsided to discover her not so perfect fiancé is already married.

In an industry full of not-so-subtle sexism, can the two women rise above, and work together to overcome heartbreak, and ensure their success?

I listened to the audio version of this book. This book was really powerful. The women in it take on a lying, cheating man who is determined to take everything from one of them and would have eventually done the same to the other. The two women who start as enemies (the boardroom scene still terrifies me) end up coming together to support each other. They also end up uniting to take on the sexism that exists in the tech industry in Silicon Valley. I loved the strength of the women that Cameron shows in this book. It is very timely that the characters are taking on the sexist pigs that alienate and intimidate their female co-workers. I also loved the softer side of the women that is shown in their personal lives and their friendships. That kind of friendship would be priceless. The story was well rounded and kept me wanting to listen all day. The narration by Susan Marlowe was superb. Her voice lent just the right classiness to these women. I was gifted a copy of this audiobook via the author. All thoughts are my own.
