Synopsis

More than meets the eye

On the outside, clinical psychologist Dr. Olivia C. Maxwell appears to live a life others only dream about. She has a sexy husband, a big house, luxury cars, and two gorgeous children, and she attends all the see-and-be-seen events. To add to the mix, she is beautiful, tall, fit, and intelligent. But what people can't see is that inside, Olivia is living a nightmare.

As the only dark-skinned member of her family, Olivia grew up hating the skin she's in and she's spent her life desperately searching for acceptance. It's not long before those deep insecurities sabotage everything she loves.

Friends 'til the end . . .

After being estranged best friends for ten years, Savvy Menefee is back in Olivia's life. And her reappearance is right on time because Olivia is teetering on the edge. A whirlwind of crazy reactions is leading Olivia into a slow, out-of-control spiral. And Savvy must try to save her friend before destructive impulses leave Olivia in the midst of mayhem and murder.

I did listen to the audiobook so I wasn't aware in some moments if it was a flashback or in the present tense. I also read it expecting a thriller and it did build me up I just don't think it quite gave......more

Layers of psychological damage While it says I rated the book 4 stars. I actually give it 3.5 star. I do so because the ending was anticlimactic. Now as for the overall storyline. Interesting topics to try to unpack within a less than 300 page novel. Nevertheless it makes for good open dialogue. You......more
