Thriller | Fiction
In a riveting debut novel that reads like Prep meets Gone
Girl, a young woman is determined to create the perfect
life—husband, home, and career—until a violent incident from
her past threatens to unravel everything and expose her most
shocking secret of all. Twenty-eight-year-old New Yorker Ani FaNelli seems to have
it all: she’s a rising star at The Women’s Magazine,
impossibly fit, perfectly groomed, and about to marry Luke
Harrison, a handsome blueblood. But behind that veneer of
perfection lies a vulnerability that Ani holds close and
buries deep—a very violent and public trauma from her past
that has left her constantly trying to reinvent herself. And
only she knows how far she would go to keep her secrets safe. When a documentary producer invites Ani to tell her side of
the chilling incident that took place when she was a
teenager at the prestigious Bradley School, she hopes it
will be an opportunity for public vindication. Armed with
the trappings of success—expensive clothes, high-powered
byline, a massive engagement ring—she is determined to
silence the whispers of suspicion and blame from her past,
and prove once and for all how far she’s come since Bradley.
She’ll even let them film her lavish wedding on Nantucket,
the final step in her transformation. But perfection doesn’t come without cost. As the wedding and
filming converge, Ani’s meticulously crafted facade begins
to buckle and crack—until an explosive revelation offers her
a final chance at redemption, even as it rocks her
picture-perfect world. Equal parts glitz and darkness, and with a singular voice
and twisting plot, Luckiest Girl Alive reads like Sex & the
City—if Carrie Bradshaw had a closet full of skeletons
instead of shoes. In Ani FaNelli, Jessica Knoll has created
a complex and vulnerable heroine who you’ll be rooting for
to the very last page.
