Former Army brat Morgan Albright has finally planted roots in a friendly neighborhood near Baltimore. Her friend and roommate Nina helps her make the mortgage payments, as does Morgan's job as a bartender. But after she and Nina host their first dinner party—attended by Luke, the flirtatious IT guy who'd been chatting her up at the bar—her carefully built world is shattered. The back door glass is broken, cash and jewelry are missing, her car is gone, and Nina lies dead on the floor.

Soon, a horrific truth emerges: It was Morgan who let the monster in. "Luke" is actually a cold-hearted con artist named Gavin who targets a particular type of woman, steals her assets and identity, and then commits his ultimate goal: murder.

What the FBI tells Morgan is beyond chilling. Nina wasn't his type. Morgan is. Nina was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. And Morgan's nightmare is just beginning. Soon she has no choice but to flee to her mother's home in Vermont. While she struggles to build something new, she meets another man, Miles Jameson. He isn't flashy or flirtatious, and his family business has deep roots in town. But Gavin is still out there hunting new victims, and he hasn't forgotten the one who got away.

 

A highly addictive race against time! Nora Roberts can always be counted on for a book to steal you away from reality and take you on a rollercoaster ride of emotion, wit and satisfaction. With her latest, she spins the tale of a popular bartender who befriends a new guy and has her world turned upside down in the blink of an eye because of it. The characters are intriguing, the danger is exhilarating and the warmth of the family and friends she has surrounding her brings a whole lot to the story. I loved every minute!

Highly recommend to anyone that enjoys romance mixed into their suspense and danger.
