About this listen

One little lie was all it took . . .

‘A juicy escapist page-turner with scandal at its heart’ Tasmina Perry

‘The perfect summer read’ Daily Mail

The brand new novel from the global bestselling author of The Devil Wears Prada

Peyton Marcus is the woman New York wakes up to, anchor of the most-watched morning show in the city. With a husband who adores her and a daughter who’s headed to one of the best Ivy League schools, Peyton Marcus is that woman, and she’s damn good at it…

Skye, her sister, is a stay-at-home mom in Paradise, the idyllic NY suburb that’s home to designer boutiques and people who fly private. She has a knack for helicopter-parenting with the best of them. But she’s not like them. She’s looking for something real and it’s within touching distance…

Max, Peyton’s bright and quirky seventeen-year-old daughter, is poised to kiss the fancy private school she hates goodbye – and all of its spoiled rich kids – and head off to pursue her dreams in film. She’s waited her entire life for this opportunity…

But suddenly the grass isn’t looking so green. One little lie. That was all it took. Will any of them survive the truth?

Enjoyable and interesting

I liked the overall plot of the story. The pop-culture links and the little subplots really added to it and kept me interested in the story. I didn’t love the Australian accent but it’s a hard one to nail - didn’t find it too distracting to the story. A good combination of adult drama, family dynamics and young love.

Pretty good story light Chick Lit

Light chick lit but entertaining nonetheless. The only real criticism was of the performance of the male Australian accent. It is a very difficult accent to get right and this version of a minor character's accent was very poor and very distracting. I suggest going for a more neutral 'international' accent if ever having to read an Australian part.
