Valerie.Michigan | May 1, 2024 |   BooksInMirror | Feb 19, 2024 |  ) knersus | Jan 23, 2024 | ) Asauer72 | Jul 3, 2023 | 3.5 Stars Upon her husband's death, Shelby Foxworth learns that not only was he an adulterer and a liar, but he was also a thief and a conman. Stuck with a mountain of debt, Shelby returns home to her small town and loving family for a fresh start with her young daughter. But Shelby's found happiness with local contractor Griff Lott is soon jeopardized when her husband's past catches up with her. Starts well, but drags a bit in the middle and the identity of the villain is completely obvious. As always, Nora's characterization is amazing from the honest and hardworking Shelby to the gentle and caring Griff. Not to mention Shelby's adorable daughter and her charming down to earth family. Each and every resident of the small Tennessee town adds something special to the setting and the story. That said, the book could have been 100 pages shorter with fewer descriptions of Griff's renovation projects and Shelby's singing at the local watering hole. It would have been better with more focus on the suspense plot and the action, which are underdeveloped. Despite these issues, the book is entertaining overall and Nora will always be a go-to author for me. ( ) Lauren2013 | May 5, 2023 | no reviews | add a review
Shelby Foxworth lost her husband. Then she lost her illusions...The man who took her from Tennessee to an exclusive Philadelphia suburb left her in crippling debt. He was an adulterer and a liar, and when Shelby tracks down his safe-deposit box, she finds multiple IDs. The man she loved wasn't just dead. He never really existed. Shelby takes her three-year-old daughter and heads south to seek comfort in her hometown, where she meets someone new: Griff Lott, a successful contractor. But her husband had secrets she has yet to discover. Even in this small town, surrounded by loved ones, danger is closer than she knows--and threatens Griff, as well. And an attempted murder is only the beginning. No library descriptions found. |

I had a feeling/thought about the ending before I got there and was correct in that feeling/thinking, but even being right, it didn't take away from the excitement of the story.
I recommend it to anyone who is a Nora Roberts fan or likes suspenseful romance books. (
