Book Review: The Secret Diamond Sisters by Michelle Madow

The Secret Diamond Sisters (The Secret Diamond Sisters #1) by Michelle Madow

Genre: Young Adult (Contemporary Romance)

Expected Release Date: February 25, 2014
Publisher: Harlequin Teen

Savannah. Courtney. Peyton.

The three sisters grew up not knowing their father and not quite catching a break. But it looks like their luck is about to change when they find out the secret identity of their long-lost dad—a billionaire Las Vegas hotel owner who wants them to come live in a gorgeous penthouse hotel suite. Suddenly the Strip's most exclusive clubs are all-access, and with an unlimited credit card each, it should be easier than ever to fit right in. But in a town full of secrets and illusion, fitting in is nothing compared to finding out the truth about their past.

This is the first book in The Secret Diamond Sisters series by Michelle Madow. These three sisters couldn't be more different from one another. Savannah is naive and superficial, Peyton is more of the rebel, and Courtney is smart and cautious. Even though they are so different, these girls have each others backs. Moving to Las Vegas is a complete culture shock to them. They are pretty much set free in Vegas with little supervision. So, much trouble is to be had. We find out some secrets about their lives, but there is still something or maybe a few somethings their Dad is hiding. I thought we'd find out more before this book ended so we would have some answers or movement towards a resolution. I enjoyed the perspectives of all three sisters. It was almost like you had three stories in one. Each sister had their own drama going on, and that kept me engaged too, but I thought there would be a little something more to the overall plot. I felt like something was missing.

The ARC of The Secret Diamond Sisters was kindly provided to me by the publisher through NetGalley and the author for review. The opinions are my own.
