Betrayal by Danielle Steele
Tally Jones is a director, highly successful.
Her assistant Bridget is a saint and does all kinds of jobs for her.
Tally keeps up with her father and her daughters lives.
Hunt is her current living partner.
Victor is in his 60s, his girlfriend after 2 marriages was Brianna who's in her 20's. Brianna wants 5 million or she's leaving him.
She loves to spend his money. He was to promote her career but she's got no talent.
Investor audits and missing $25,000 a month is not accounted for and Tally has to wonder where it's going.
Tally will get her dad involved into finding out where all her money is going.
She hears from one of their side of the story and she's not sure she can believe them. The FBI is in charge now investigating all 3 people who are suspect.
Her lawyer turns her over to Jim Kingston with the FBI and a lot more investigations take place and move forward.
He goes above and beyond the work, he's also got a son who's a teen. They compare notes about each of their kids.
Sickness, death, trials are some of the heartache Tally has to trudge through. She does have friends and family to help her along her trek.

Fast read once you get right into it.. I almost felt like this was a true story. I can see this happening quite often out there in Hollywood with so many dishonest people around..

This is a great book if you don't want over the top amazing thriller, something light to go with the flow. Also, if you've never tried a thriller/suspense before, this could be a good start. But, for those who want to get hocked from start to end like me, this will not intrigue you much.

Considering that Danielle Steel is a master of her work, have written 80 novels so far (I don't know which count Betrayal comes at) but the writing style still felt mediocre to me. Affcourse I'm no writer. Therefore, I always restrain myself to give harsh comments but delivering through this review, how I felt is my sole responsibility as a reviewer.
The story was predictable, twist came too early and once it all cleared out, the ending was dragged is what I feel. Although, I was into it at the start but the story faded in the middle and it lost its suspense. There is a major shock towards the end which I loved.

All in all a 3/5 🌟 novel for me.
