Summary: disappointing
Review: Nikki Baker's plots are interesting and plausible but it is a great shame that her main character is such a disappointment. Virginia Kelly is selfish, egotistical, vain and casually cruel - its good to have realistic characters along with their faults but frankly this one is so unpleasant its hard to see why anyone would like her.
