Girl on a Diamond Pedestal by Maisey YatesMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I love the cover of this book and being written by one of my favorite authors, I was really excited.
Noelle, a famous pianist, abandoned by her controlling mother, who has run off with all her money, is left almost destitute and with a “dead” career.
Ethan, trying to get back at his amoral father and sometime lover of Noelle’s mother. He asks Noelle to marry him and he will help her career and money-wise. He will then inherit the family business instead of his father.
I so did not bond with the two mc’s. I thought Noelle very shallow and self-absorbed and Ethan cold and calculating.
I was kind of so-so in the first part of the book but half-way began to like it more.
As these two “lost” souls amble along in reaching their own “quests”, I began to feel a bit sad for them.
Sins of the fathers – as that saying says, children suffer punishment related to the father/mother’s past sins, clearly shows in this story.
Happily for Noelle & Ethan, they discover that you cannot allow the past mistakes by your parents rule your lives.
Nice and interesting storyline and I did enjoy the last chapter in the story.
