“A phenomenal debut for Williams. It has dry wit and flawless scene transitions that thoroughly invest the reader in the plot and the many characters. Billie may not be a romance heroine who’s especially easy to relate to, but in the context of this story, you won’t even mind. Although Williams’ diva may be an accident, this excellent first story is not.”
