Publisher's summary

Alice has been playing the perfect Southern wife for over 25 years. So when Bob dumps her for some blonde bimbo 20 years her junior, Alice figures she's entitled to every dollar she can bleed from him. And, once she's got the money, she's entitled to use it on a much-needed vacation to Nanm Paradi, a Caribbean resort that sells itself as her "soul's paradise".

She's never experienced anything as luxurious as Nanm Paradi. The staff know her every desire and cater to her every need before she even knows she needs it. She figures this is how the really rich live and she's ready to take advantage of all of it - the fabulous drinks, the beautiful views, and the handsome men. And when she discovers that voodoo magic is also on offer...well, Bob hurt her bad. She can take some time away from paradise to exact a little pain. Alice would have been happy to leave things at that.

But when she gets hit where it hurts - her bank account - Alice's game changes. It's no longer about post-divorce romance. Now it's about revenge.

What Goes Around a little bit thriller, a little bit witchy, a little bit romance, and a whole lot of sass.

feel good story of revenge

Cute story of an ex-wife, scorned. The scenery is so vivid you can almost hear the gulls. Sometimes one should choose to suspend belief, and this is one of those times.

Voodoo, Marital Intrigue, and Southern Justice

This would make for a fun Netflix movie. This is a dark dramedy with relatable betrayal, subtle-but-smart magic, and sweet romance. I enjoyed it and recommend it. While I could not relate to the character, I was still able to understand her and feel what she felt.
The narrration is good, but there are a few points where the recording repeats itself. It is minimal, though.
Rachel Ellyn is a clever writer with a clear focus on telling an entertaining story. Her execution is deft and effective.
