About this listen

Named A Most Anticipated Thriller of Summer 2023 by Oprah Daily ∙ Buzzfeed ∙ SheReads ∙ BookBub ∙ PureWow ∙ CrimeReads ∙ and more!

Kira’s back in her affluent hometown for the first time in years and determined to unravel the secrets of her mother’s death—hidden in the unpublished memoir she left behind—even if it kills her. . . .

After her troublemaker mother’s mysterious death, Kira fled her wealthy Texas town and never looked back. Now, decades later, Kira is invited to an old frenemy’s vow renewal celebration. Though she is reluctant to go, there are things pulling her home. . . like chilled wine and days spent by the pool . . . like sexy Jack, her childhood crush. But more important are the urgent texts from her grandmother, who says she has something for Kira. Something related to her mother’s death, something that makes it look an awful lot like murder.

When her grandmother gives Kira a memoir that her mother had been working on before she died, Kira is drawn into the past and all the sizzling secrets that come along with it. With few allies left in her gossipy country-club town, Kira turns to Jack for help. As she gets closer to discovering what—and who—might have brought about her mother’s end, it becomes clear that someone wants the past to stay buried.

And they might come after Kira next.

Critic reviews

"You can’t close summer without a murder mystery. Fans of Desperate Housewives and Devious Maids will love this thriller…"—Cosmopolitan

"[A] delicious summertime popcorn thriller feel: Propulsive, full of unexpected twists, and with more than a little spicy sexiness thrown on top. The sort of story you accidentally find yourself devouring in an afternoon, simply because it’s so easy to promise yourself you’re only going to read one more chapter."—Paste

"Another sizzling thriller set in the sultry Texas heat…You’ll tear through this one poolside! Maybe on the beach, while wearing sunglasses…who knows what thoughts of delicious vengeance may be hidden behind sunglasses."—CrimeReads

A LIKEABLE WOMAN draws you in and doesn’t let go! The character development is rich, and the scene settings are authentic. Remember going back to your childhood hometown for a reunion or some big gathering? This will put you there and nail you down. Amanda Stribling is spot on with all of the different characters and does a wonderful job.

May Cobb is on fire!

Amanda Stribling did a fantastic job with so many characters. I’ll always listen to her.

Performance was great, story was just long

I had a difficult time getting into this book at first. The writing is very slow going. Once things start rolling along I finally found new ground for listening even though it was predictable. May it would have been better read the physical book?

Very Slow Going & Predictable

Another exciting read from May Cobb

So unbelievably bad. Don’t waste your time. Very unsophisticated. Like it was written by a 12 year old. Not trying to be unkind but I can’t think of anything that makes it worth it to read this. Not believable. Not good and not well written.

So bad….

This book was so predictable, so slow, and not an enjoyable listen. I would skip this one and try something else.

Do not waste a credit

This story is so mind numbing. WHY does she keep going back to her cabin about 32 times if someone is threatening to murder her? Why does she walk in the woods alone about 32 times if someone is threatening to murder her. I realized about halfway through who the murderer likely was but it didn’t make any sense even in the end. Would not recommend.

Yikes
