Mallory Holcolm is an unfulfilled waitress and aspiring artist living in a Queens boardinghouse when she learns something astonishing about her past: she has an identical twin sister named Charly she never knew existed.
Charly is a Princeton graduate, a respected gallery owner, and an heiress married to her handsome college sweetheart, Ben. Charly got everything she ever wanted. Everything Mallory wanted, too. And now it might be easier than Mallory ever imagined. Because Ben has reasons of his own for wanting to help her.
It begins with his startling proposal. All Mallory has to do is say yes.
But as their devious plan falls into place, piece by piece, Mallory learns more about her sister and herself than she ever meant to—a discovery that comes with an unexpected twist. A chilling deception is about to become a dangerous double cross. And it’s going to change the rules of Ben and Mallory’s game to the very end.
| I would like to thank Net Galley, Marti Green and Thomas and Mercer for the opportunity to read this book. I was so happy with this book. I liked the way that it was set up, the way we got to hear from Mallory, Ben and Charley. I especially liked how it was broken in to three parts. I loved parts one and two, Part three kind of threw me for a loop, not to say I didn't love it. I mean I did, I just didn't see it coming. I liked it kind of gave me The Wife Between Us sort of feel. You should read this book because its not your normal run of the mill thrillers. It was different to me just because of the characters. I sort of wanted to hate on Charley too, the way that Ben described her and then at the same time I wanted to hate on Mallory just because she was being selfish about not getting everything that Charley had. I mean she was the one that got kept. She should have been happy about that at least. I really liked the Grandfather in the story, I mean he to me felt like he knew more than he was letting on. I mean telling and not telling at the same time, he figured things out at the end when no one else could have. Like I said the ending threw me for a loop, I couldn't believe what I had read and had to reread it to make sure that I got it right. I think it just goes to show you that even if you have all the money you never had before you still wont be happy unless you have your family beside you. This was such a good book, and I want to read more by Marti Green for sure! Thanks Again | ||
