Book Summary

Any woman who's ever been involved with a bad, bad man and been dumped will understand what it feels like to be broken, broken-hearted, and bent on revenge.

Taylor Bishop is hurt, angry, and wants to destroy Angus Hollingsworth in the way he destroyed her: 'Insidiously. Irreparably. Like a puzzle he'd slowly dissembled, stolen a couple of pieces from, and then discarded, knowing that nobody would ever be able to put it back together ever again.'

So Taylor consults The Art of War and makes a plan. Then she takes the next irrevocable step one that will change her life forever.

Things start to spiral out of her control and The Sunday Girl becomes impossible to put down. It's a tale of love gone wrong...and revenge done right.
