The author does a wonderful job creating devious but relatable characters that readers will enjoy. This book had me frustrated with the main character but also feeling sympathetic toward her. They say most everyone carries personal baggage but these characters take it to another level. I recommend 90 Days Probation to others.This book was provided by the author for review purposes.Teresa BeasleyAPOOO BookClub
