Review
This novel is definitely not easy to piece together yourself and I felt myself surprised many times.
Jennifer Chase is able to unfold the plot believably while stringing readers along. The characters are both different yet the same in ways and I enjoyed the balance of having both sides of the story to read about.
The action and drama leaps off the pages. Pick this one up, you wont be disappointed.
