review 1: I received this book from NetGalley and have read all of the books in this series....I absolutely LOVED this book and the way both authors bring their characters together! Jasmine, Rachel, and Mae Frances are a HOOT! I appreciate how the story lines uses pop culture and real life people to play into the story! I don't know what more trouble these two can get into BUT I hope there is more to come!
review 2: This fast paced novel takes us through the ins and outs of our favorite frenemies, Jasmine Cox Larson Bush and Rachel Jackson Adams on their latest adventure - a reality show about First Ladies. Whoa!! Where do I start??? This book was a welcome surprise to the Jasmine/Rachel rivalry! I thought it couldn't get more dramatic between these two, but a reality sh
... moreow sure does bring out the claws, huh?The authors introduced the drama IMMEDIATELY and set the tone for the one-ups these two experience during a 2-month period. I was surprised that we jump right into it so soon, but I should have expected it from these two authors!! Despite the OMG moments, we find the ladies have *somewhat* matured - mainly in their relationships with their husbands. We see glimmers of an actual friendship throughout their struggles, heightened by the return of Natasia (Jasmine's 'nemesis') and the introduction of Mary (Rachel's 'nemesis'. It pained me to see how dysfunctional these women were in relationship - but sadly, the book was quite indicative of real life. I found myself rooting for someone (anyone) to be the bigger person and initiate some healing of old wounds. We see glimpses of it, so I remain hopeful for these crazy gals. I can definitely see yet *another* sequel, or perhaps a spinoff on one of the sidebar characters. less
