This had me hooked from the beginning, I thought it was going to be a romance ( which it was) but i wasn’t expecting the twist early on in the story, from that moment on I was speed reading to get to the end. It just shows how easy identity theft is if you know how to do it and how at risk we all are. I liked the link to 3 generations on strong women and how resilient they were.

Expected this to be a thriller but its more of a love story. Some good characters. Not sure we needed to be reminded that Morgan is a bartender so many times though.

It’s always a treat to start reading a new Nora Roberts book, as you know you are going to get a well crafted plot, great characters and a really good read. This is no exception. Morgan Albrights life is turned upside down when her room mate Nina is murdered, and she finds herself the victim of identity theft by Luke, a man she let into their lives. Broken, she goes home to family in Vermont, to try to pick up the pieces of her life, but Luke hasn’t finished with her.

A nicely paced read, very well researched - I want to try some of the cocktails described - and a good plot. Identity theft is devastating for the victim, add in murder of a close friend and it’s no wonder Morgan is struggling to put her life back together. The tension builds nicely, with the killer obsessing over the fact that Morgan is the one who got away, blaming her for the things that start to go wrong in his life. Add in the sexual tension between Morgan and Miles, and you have a really good thriller that makes you want to savour every page.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for the opportunity to read and review this book.

5/5 stars!

I’m always a fan of Nora Robert books, as soon as I read the description I knew I was in for a good read!

Identity follows the story of Morgan, a hard-working and ambitious girl. She lives with her housemate, Nina who comes to be one of Morgan’s best friends. After throwing a dinner party, Morgan’s life was ruined. Nina has been murdered and Morgan was the one who got away. She moved back home to live with her mum and grandmother, where she manages to get a job at a local family run hotel where she meets Miles, however Gavin cannot let Morgan get away as he never forgot about her.

I truly loved this book, it has the right balance of romance and suspense! I would definitely recommend this book to my family and friends!

Thank you to Nora Roberts, the publisher and NetGalley for this arc!

Morgan has set herself life goals and is working hard towards them. Meeting handsome stranger leads to complications .
Returning home to mum and grandmas broken.
A story of love, family and healing.
Excellent as always.

The Queen of romantic suspense does it again!
Morgan Albrights world is turned upside down when she lets the wrong “conman” man into her life.
Her best friend is murdered and Morgan’s identity is stolen by the murderous conman - whilst Morgan is unharmed and flees to her hometown the conman is fixated on Morgan as she is the one who got away. And he won’t let her get away.
Whilst I really enjoyed the book, I did find a lot of in-depth details unnecessary - for example about the characters businesses (hospitality) - took away from some of the character development and story

When I pick up a Nora Roberts book I always know I’m in for a good read.

Suddenly her world as she knows it will never be the same again.
