Publisher Description

From Kate White, the New York Times bestselling author of the Bailey Weggins mystery series and several standalone novels, comes So Pretty It Hurts, fans of If Looks Could KillOver Her Dead Body, and Lethally Blond have been waiting for.

Bailey Weggins, the sassy amateur sleuth and true-crime journalist, is in a good place. She’s enjoying her regular gig at Buzz, a leading celebrity magazine, getting freelance work, and hoping her first book will garner attention. In the love department, she’s finally back in the game with her recently-turned-exclusive boyfriend, Beau Regan.

When Beau heads out of town one early December weekend, Bailey accepts an invitation from her office friend Jessie to a music mogul’s house in the country, hoping for a fun, relaxing getaway. But a weird tension settles over the houseguests—a glamorous crowd that includes the famously thin supermodel Devon Barr. An impending snowstorm only adds to the unease. So when Devon’s lifeless body is found in her bed, Bailey immediately suspects foul play: she can’t stop thinking of the day before, when a frightened Devon shivered in the woods and pleaded, “I have to get out of here. . . . It’s not safe for me.”

When Bailey starts to nose around, she finds herself a moving target—running closer to the truth and straight into danger. She’s determined to find out who’s responsible, but her investigation could provoke the killer into striking again…

"I had never read any books in this series before, but I'm glad I read this one. Light and easy to read. It kept my interest. Even though I read it backwards, I will most definitely read the others in the Bailey Weggins series."

— Tami (4 out of 5 stars)

    " Probably the best of Kate White's mysteries. The mystery was fun, the romantic up and downs of our heroine were bland and contrived, set against a New York backdrop of affluence and money that already seems to be fading. Not necessarily in the real sense but the glamorous sense. Maybe I'm tired of clothing labels. But, that said, again it's a good mystery for the winter months. "

    " Modern day version of a country house murder - a group of people, most of whom are connected in some way; snowed in so no-one can leave; knowing that one of the guests is a murderer. Bailey Wiggins is the main character, a true-crime journalist who writes for a trashy celebrity magazine (likely? I don't think so)and keeps investigating until she solves the crime. I didn't have empathy with her character because I found her too pushy but I guess that's a characteristic needed by a journalist like that. I was pleased that by the end of the novel she left the magazine and has gone freelance because it opens up the potential for future stories. Good read. "

    " I've enjoyed the Bailey Weggins series until now. This one, not so much. I spent the entire book wondering how anyone supposedly so brilliant could be that incredibly stupid, continually putting herself knowingly in harms way. And the whole premise of this one was just....odd...for lack of a better word. Very disappointed. "

    " This book was no where near as suspensful as her last, "The Sixes." A much slower, lighter story. Still good enough to finish, but definately not a page-turner. I'll probably still read her books, but they may take a lower priority on my list. "
