First, I want to thank Nicola Marsh, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.

The Scandal by Nicola Marsh is a must-read book of 2019 if you are craving a good Phycological Thriller like I was. It is an incredibly twisted, emotional, domestic issues, and an ending that will blow you away!!

This is the first time I have had the pleasure of reading and reviewing for Nicola. I was blown away by her creativity, her incredible storylines, how she built up the suspense to the very end, and her character building.
Nicola will grasp your attention hard
 and shock you from the first page. She will not let your attention go until the very last page. I actually went back to re-read the front page after. It all made sense. This is the key to a good author in my opinion. Grasping my undivided attention and not letting it go.

In this book you will meet Marissa, Elly, Claire, Maggie. These girls reminded me of the Desperate Housewives but way more twisted secrets kept! Each woman had their unique personality with their own very interesting story to tell. Some of those stories will pull on your heart strings a little more than others.
Overall, this book would make an amazing movie for NetFlix or Lifetime Movie Channel. I bet it would be a big hit.
