The blurb (from Amazon)


This is Desperate Housewives meets First Wives Club set in the glamorous borough of Chelsea.
On the King’s Road, revenge is sweeter than champagne…

They are the ultimate ladies who lunch: Imogen, the beautiful ex-model, Calgary, the glamorous, former fashion editor, and Yasmin, the feisty ex-party girl.

But life isn’t all champagne and canapés. Plagued by personal tragedy and united by failing marriages, they mastermind a shocking plan to turn the tables on their husbands.

Set against a backdrop of exotic locations, designer boutiques and London's high society scene, these Chelsea Wives are about to join forces and risk it all for the ultimate revenge…

A fast paced story of a trio of Chelsea Wives who are trying to take control of their destinies. 

Imogen, Calgary and Yasmin have all the luxuries and the lifestyle of the rich and famous, but their lives are not quite as glamorous as they appear.  Each wife has reason to be unhappy and wants desperately to change the future.  

What began as more of a Housewives of.... story and morphed into more of a glamourous version of The Italian Job!  This  action packed fantasy adventure would look great on the big screen.  

I really enjoyed the author's luxurious writing.  I could see this author writing more serious novels.  

Pure escapism and such fun!

8 out of 10 for me!

Thank you to Avon for a review copy. This did not influence my review in any way.
