Book review - The Gatecrasher

Morning,

I thought I'd give you another book review to enjoy, as an idea for your next read. Its another read from Madeleine Wickham also know as Sophie Kinsella.

The Blurb reads:
Fleur Daxeny is beautiful, unscrupulous, and has a large 
wardrobe of black designer suits. With the help of The Times 
announcements page she gatecrashes the funerals and memorial 
services of the wealthy, preying on rich, vulnerable man. She 
charms her way into their lives and onto their platinum credit 
cards, take what she can, and then moves swiftly on.

When Richard Favour, a dull but wealthy businessman, 
meets Fleur at his wife's memorial service, he's bowled over. 
Gradually Fleur works her spell on Richard's reserved and 
stilted family - transforming their lives while she moves in on 
their wealth. She finds herself lingering longer than she 
meant to, becoming involved in the family - but as 
Fleur rifles through Richard's files, it becomes clear that she is 
not the only one after his money. 

A hugely enjoyable read, to follow the life of a women who preys on men at their weakest point. When you get involved with a family you find out everything about them, how can you turn away from a family who want you to stay? Another great read.

Love Lolly
xoxo
