If something seems too good to be true, it probably is. When a young, daring, impulsive redhead falls prey to an Internet scam and is swindled out of her life savings and her childhood home, she’s hell-bent on recouping her losses and punishing the person responsible. Her single-minded quest for revenge takes her around the world, from New York to Japan, to the untamed steppes of Kyrgyzstan, to Greece, and ultimately, to a sleek super-yacht anchored in the Mediterranean Sea. In the midst of her global escapades, she also finds love. Will she let her thirst for retribution destroy that, too? Join Heather Bancroft for the adventure of a lifetime in another ‘unputdownable’ Mike Wells thriller. Readers of James Patterson, Sidney Sheldon and Danielle Steel will enjoy this series. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From Jayne Lockwood Reviews This is another enormously enjoyable read from Mr. Wells. Heather is young, beautiful, living and working in New York City. There she gets involved in a dangerous game which seems to be the answer to all her financial worries. AND she meets her perfect man. Life is going swimmingly until she loses everything and has to claw it back, pitting her wits against an elusive millionaire whose get rich quick schemes have resulted in the ruination of countless other people. There is intrigue, tension, international travel, glamour, gleaming yachts, designer clothes, beautiful women, peril on the streets of Paris, murder and sex. It's all in there, a luscious mix of Sidney Sheldon and Shirley Conran, updated and fresh enough to stand tall in the 21st century. I could not put this book down. It was a huge amount of fun but more than that, it has stayed with me and is definitely one I will be recommending to anyone who wants a more than just a sexy romp through a millionaire's playground. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reviewed by David Savage, What's Good to Do Magazine A story of money, greed, scams, revenge and love!
