Vengeful Women is a dazzling, high-stakes thriller packed with glamour, revenge, and shocking twists. Furious female voices drive a story of betrayal, ambition, and murder, making this modern bonkbuster utterly addictive from start to explosive finish.

Beneath the dazzling surface lies a darker exploration of abuse, sexism, online harassment, and the complexities of friendship, elevating the novel beyond pure escapism. Intense, addictive, and unapologetically dramatic, Melanie Blake brings this racy bestseller into the 21st century, ending in a climax as thrilling as it is memorable.

Just when you believe you’ve uncovered every layer of these women, the story pivots and reveals a side you never saw coming.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an advanced copy of the book, all opinions expressed are my own.

Vengeful Women is pure, high‑octane drama. Melanie Blake delivers a glitzy, scandal packed thriller full of betrayal, ambition, and revenge. Think power struggles, secrets, and plenty of jaw‑dropping twists.

If you like your book full of showbiz glamour, tough women, deception and debauchery and sex, lots of sex, then look no further. The women of Falcon Bay are back in Book 3 of the series starring the cast and players of the world famous but now cancelled television soap. Personally, I would recommend you read the previous books to understand the interactions between the players, although you could read as a stand-alone. This is a crazy, hedonistic and completely compelling read.

Briefly, it is 2 years on from the dreadful live finale of Falcon Bay and we are back on the island of St Augustine’s. The 5 major and equally devious players, Farrah, Helen, Catherine, Sheena and Amanda are behind bars with their trial for manslaughter and perverting the course of justice due to start soon. Jake has inherited the site and has built a theme park and the largest skyscraper in Europe, as he continues to sleep his way around the island. But this book, as per the title, is about revenge. But who is avenging what is the big question, as each of the players has an axe to grind. When the detestable Jake suddenly finds himself on a hit list, and a face shockingly appears from the past, the tension ramps up.

If you’ve read the previous books you know what to expect. If you haven’t then be prepared to put reality to one side and immerse yourself in this decadent, ruthless, glamorous and shocking world. Nothing is off limits, not even murder. Think Jackie Collins meets Dynasty then up the anti and you might be close. A fast paced book full of twists and turns, building up to an inevitable but absolutely shocking climax. An enjoyable and entertaining read.
