Nora Roberts
The #1 New York Times-bestselling author's terrifying next thriller about one man's ice-cold malice, and one woman's fight to reclaim her life.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.

"This was pretty formulaic Nora Roberts writing in my opinion. Honestly, and please someone answer me… do people actually talk like this in real life? I couldn’t get past it. The book started off much stronger than it finished. I was skimming (at best) by the end of it. I don’t jump at reading her novels anymore, and this one solidifies that decision for me. "
"Classic Nora Roberts—good read for a relaxing weekend. "

"Standard for Nora Roberts (and her standard writing is always good). Similar plot to most of her modern novels, the usual villain, love interest, family connection, etc. Nothing new or noteworthy, but still good."

"This is a DNF form me. The writing is stilted. I felt like I was reading a timeline. Like it was listed out and then written. I just couldn’t do it."
