Amanda Travis is a high-powered, 28-year-old lawyer whose greatest likes are spinning classes at her Palm Beach gym and a compliant jury. As for the things she hates, they include nicknames, the color pink, clients who don't follow her advice, and memories. Unfortunately, running from her past becomes a lot harder when one of her ex-husbands calls from her hometown of Toronto with the alarming news that her mother has shot and killed a complete stranger.

EDITOR NEEDED!

(spoiler-free) This book would have made a far more entertaining and far less exasperating read had it been abridged, making it 25-30% shorter. We, unfortunately, had the unabridged version, which ran on and on and on, chockful of extraneous, redundant, and finally excruciatingly boring descriptions, minor characters, and repetitive dialogue, not to mention product placements! Joy Fielding is a good author whose work my wife usually enjoys, but she was as frustrated as I by its bloated descriptions.
Another flaw was that the only sympathetic character in the book is the first ex-husband. The protagonist is so unlikable that you don't really care what happens to her.
Pros: the reader, Laura Hicks, is quite good.
the ending twist, if you make it that far, is good, though pretty implausible.
