A hilarious murder mystery-rom-com from author and comedian Kate Weston investigates the sinister side of social media when bullying turns bloody--and a string of classmate deaths by menstrual cup and sanitary pad sets amateur sleuth Kerry hot on the trail of a menstrual murderer. Perfect for fans of Truly Devious and Fleabag.
There's never a good time to find a dead body, sure. But what about finding a dead body while you're trying to kiss your crush?
Kerry had different plans for her first high school party--like not going. All she wanted to do was stay home in the safety of retro rom-coms and her strict retainer schedule. Instead her BFF, fiercely outgoing mystery-fanatic Annie, has roped her into going to the party to investigate who's cyberbullying Heather, the most popular girl in school.
Finding herself getting close with her dreamy crush is odd enough, but when the two of them discover Heather's second in command, Selena, suffocated with a menstrual cup, things get really weird.
And when a second student turns up dead, this time with a sanitary pad across the eyes, Annie and Kerry--no matter how much she resists--are officially on the case to stop the menstrual murderer . . . period.
Life was perfect...at first.
Lavish parties, world travel, professional achievement, social status-Allison Creeley's life becomes all this and more when Clay Havershon makes her his wife. Everything she's ever wanted is right there at her fingertips, it almost seems too good to be true. And it is.
They say money cannot buy love or happiness. With one devastating humiliation after another delivered by the man she married and the man she realizes she never truly knew, Allison Creeley quickly discovers the unmentioned additions to that oversimplified saying. Money does not buy confidence. It cannot pay for self-worth, forgiveness, or compassion. And it has no power to repeat the past for a second chance to make the right decisions.
Beneath the overwhelming burden of her husband's constant infidelity and torn between who she wants to be and what's best for their two children, Allison blazes a heart-wrenching trail through the wilderness of gain and loss, alcoholism and sobriety, betrayal, motherhood, resentment, and longing. And on the other side, finding impervious friendships and unshakeable foundations in the most unlikely places, she discovers a certainty in one enduring truth. We only see the things in life for what they really are after we've made them our own.
