Description
New York City fashion editor Anya St. Clair is on the verge of greatness. Her wardrobe is to die for. Her social media is killer. And her career path is littered with the bodies of anyone who got in her way. She’s worked hard to get where she is, but she doesn’t have everything.
Not like Sarah Taft. Anya’s obsession sits one desk away. Beautiful, stylish, and rich, she was born to be a fashion world icon. From her beach-wave blonde hair to her on-trend nail art, she’s a walking editorial spread. And Anya wants to be her friend. Her best friend. Her only friend.
But when Sarah becomes her top competition for a promotion, Anya’s plan to win her friendship goes into overdrive. In order to beat Sarah…she’ll have to become her. Friendly competition may turn fatal, but as they say in fashion:One day you’re in, and the next day you’re dead.

“Hilariously funny as well as profoundly unsettling . . .
will keep readers hooked and laughing, if a bit uncomfortably, from Page 1
until the shocking ending.” —Kirkus Reviews

"A book to not only buy, keep, and read, but to inhale from page one. The sense of menace in the prologue will hook readers from the get-go, and Akhtar's sharp-as-a-tack writing will carry you along this entertaining read to a stunning end, um, ending."―New York Journal of Books
