Netgalley and William Morrow have provided me with a copy of Windfall for review:



It was the girls' weekend they would never forget.



J.J., Molly, and Leila were once inseparable, but life and distance have disrupted their friendship. When the three reunite for a birthday weekend in Las Vegas, they buy a lottery ticket on a whim that has the winning numbers-giving them a billion-dollar windfall. After becoming shell-shocked, they turn to Shea Daniels, a "sudden wealth manager," who promises to guide them through the pitfalls of having a lot of money.



They would live to regret their girls' weekend.



The trio travels to a secluded California mansion where Shea and her staff cater to their every whim, promising to help them navigate their newfound lifestyles. A missing movie star was last seen alive in the house, which is rumored to be cursed. It is lavish beyond their wildest dreams. The wildfires raging around them disrupt communication and block roads, turning their weekend into a nightmare. As history repeats itself, one of them disappears, the one holding the billion-dollar ticket, and the others must decide whether or not their friend has betrayed them...or if a predator lurks.



I give Windfall five out of five stars!



Happy Reading!
