We Were Never Friends by Kaira Rouda

From author Kaira Rouda: “When former sorority sisters gather for an engagement party, their reluctant reunion moves from awkward to uncomfortable to lethal as each reveals the part she played in a tragedy during Spring Break 25 years ago. Meet the sisters of Theta Gamma Mu: Roxy the Ruthless, former sorority president and current hostess Amelia the Merry Widow, drenched in old money and alcohol Jamie the Double-Legacy Pledge, straight-A student with no sparkle Beth the Wallflower, the scholarship student who never quite fit in Sunny the Boho Beauty, carefree and beloved friend to all, or so it seemed-until she wasn’t They’ve been summoned to Roxy’s luxurious Palm Springs vacation home to celebrate the engagement of her son to Beth’s daughter. But the refurbished 1920s estate is eerily reminiscent of the hotel where tragedy struck during Spring Break twenty-five years ago. Long-simmering tensions and shocking secrets begin bubbling to the surface like bodies-because while the weekend was supposed to be about celebrating the future, it’s not so easy to bury the past. For fans of Shari Lapena, Mary Kubica, and B. A. Paris, We Were Never Friends is an unputdownable, riveting train wreck full of dark humor and bad behavior”– Provided by publisher.
