Funny how one lie can spiral…

One thing about me: I HATE flying. It’s my worst nightmare.

That’s why I book seat 2A every time I fly. Since my big win, I've been booking seats 2B and 2C as well. They’re my comfort seats, they cushion the claustrophobia, and at last I can afford them.

I am now determined to live the life of luxury. I deserve it, after all.

How to Live Like a Millionaire is the book I’m reading on this flight. When it lands on the floor, a handsome guy hands it back to me. I know he clocks the title, because he’s totally charming and talks to me as if I’m one of the Marbella Millionaire set.

When I land in sunny Spain, I’ll be acting like a millionairess, that’s for sure – even if it’s stretching the truth, just a bit. We all know that money talks, and I intend to talk my way into a better life.

Who knows… maybe this guy, the one who had the cheek to sit down in seat 2C, might be someone special. He has an air of danger, but who cares?

Woah! I literally couldn't put that down.  I'm not entirely sure what I was expecting but this definitely beat those expectations and more. 

I had to keep on reading to see how things turned out, especially after Part 1. 

All I'll say is that there is one seriously creepy character, and I wanted to scream at Jade to come to her senses right from the start. I was so sure I knew where this book was going to take me, but I was wrong. There is more to it than I first thought, and there are some brilliantly brave women in this story. 

Jade although I felt bad for her, I also at times found it hard to like her, she just kept making iffy decisions. 

I will say though that I would not recommend reading the first chapter if you are on a flight, especially if you are a nervous flier. It certainly scared me, and I'm fine with flying, but the descriptions and Jade's fear really got to me. 

Other than that it is perfect holiday reading, it's addictive, it's moreish and it's set in sunny Spain,  and it's one you need to set aside time to read, as you will want to read it in one sitting.  

Totally brilliant. I loved this a lot and was very impressed with it. 

Thank you to Boldwood Books and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
