The name of the game is revenge—no matter the cost—in this emotionally charged thriller reminiscent of The Wife Between Us and The Perfect Nanny. Kerrie O’Malley, jobless and in an unfulfilling relationship, can isolate the singular moment in her life when things veered off course—the night she was irrevocably wronged by someone she looked up to. Eighteen years later, when Kerrie sees the very woman who destroyed her life on television, a fire ignites inside her. The stakes are high. The risks are perilous. But she’ll stop at nothing to achieve the retribution she deserves. Jordana Pierson is a gilded New Yorker who appears to have it all: wealth, glamour, a successful and handsome husband, and a thriving wedding concierge business. Her record is spotless. Her business is flourishing. No one knows the truth about her and the dark shadows of her past. No one, that is, except Kerrie. Exploring just how far someone will go for vengeance, Pretty Revenge is a riveting, compulsively readable novel bursting with twists and turns and plenty of suspense.

I had HIGH expectations for this book. I thought it was going to be an awesome story about well developed characters, a game between two masterminds, but what I got is just disappointment. For a moment I thought I was reading a YA book because the characters seemed too immature, naive, and sometimes stupid. The whole purpose of the revenge was because Jordana had done something UNFORGIVABLE to Kerrie. However, almost at the end of the book, when the big revelation happened, it was incredible and ridiculous to me. I didn't like the characters or the plot, but it kept me entertained for a while. That's why I can't rate this with one star.
I won this book through GoodReads and I thank to publishers for providing me this copy. My review isn't influenced by this fact.
