The Girl Friend by Michelle Frances – What a Riveting Read! 5 Stars


Great read! I couldn’t put the book down once I got a second chapter into it.  It starts out slowly but then builds fast.  There is romance, mystery and suspense….
Girl meets boy, then she meets his Mother.  Mom doesn’t make her feel welcome in their rich pretentious life, she tries, but she just can’t warm to this girl.  She really wants to keep her boy who is now in a program to be a doctor, to herself.  This girl keeps coming between them.  She starts snooping amongst the girls belongings while they are visiting their home in France……she finds the girl has told some little white lies.  She soon finds out this girl will do anything to hold on to her son and then she must do anything to keep her from him, the son has no clue for a while what is going on!  Warning Will Robinson, this girl is dangerous but then there is his Mother also!!  Pick this book up I promise you, you won’t be disappointed!

I won a copy of this book through Good Reads, and for that I’m giving it an honest review…..I Love It!!!


Description as found on Good Reads:
The addictive Number One bestselling thriller, perfect for fans of Into the Water.

A girl. A boy. His mother. And the lie she'll wish she'd never told.

The Girlfriend by Michelle Frances is a gripping and chilling debut psychological thriller, based on the fall-out following an unforgiveable lie. It looks at the potentially charged relationship between girlfriend, boyfriend and his mother, which most women can identify with, and locates it in an extreme but believable setting.

Laura has it all. A successful career, a long marriage to a rich husband, and a twenty-three-year-old son, Daniel, who is kind, handsome, and talented. Then Daniel meets Cherry. Cherry is young, beautiful and smart but she hasn't had the same opportunities as Daniel. And she wants Laura's life.

Cherry comes to the family wide-eyed and wants to be welcomed with open arms, but Laura suspects she's not all that she seems. 

When tragedy strikes, an unforgiveable lie is told. It is an act of desperation, but the fall-out will change their lives forever.
