REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK | #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“This fast-paced read has everything you could want in a thriller: secret identities, a mysterious boss and a cat & mouse game that kept me guessing the whole way through.” —Reese Witherspoon

Evie Porter has everything a nice Southern girl could want: a doting boyfriend, a house with a white picket fence, a tight group of friends. The only catch: Evie Porter doesn’t exist.

The identity comes first: Evie Porter. Once she’s given a name and location by her mysterious boss, Mr. Smith, she learns everything there is to know about the town and the people in it. Then the mark: Ryan Sumner. The last piece of the puzzle is the job.

Evie isn’t privy to Mr. Smith’s real identity, but she knows this job isn't like the others. Ryan has gotten under her skin, and she’s starting to envision a different sort of life for herself. But Evie can’t make any mistakes—especially after what happened last time.

Evie Porter must stay one step ahead of her past while making sure there's still a future in front of her. The stakes couldn't be higher—but then, Evie has always liked a challenge. . . .

Fantastic Read - terrific narration!

Perfectly paced. Clever twists. Surprising unpredictable. Wonderfully entertaining! I love that I did not have this figured out along the way it held my attention and kept me interested every single step.!!

Wow what a read!

I heard about this book on Jesse Waters prime time on Fox. He was blown away, thought I give it a try. I could not stop listening to it. Author keeps you interested the complete time. Highly recommend

I was not prepared.

I loved this book from beginning to end. Every time I thought I had things figured out, the next plot twist would come and I’d be right back to guessing. Even then, I was not prepared for that ending! It was SO GOOD.

Love this book! So suspenseful

Nothing to dislike at all, everything was wonderfully written! Suspenseful, romantic, kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time.

Wow, wow, wow!

I wish I could give this ten stars. This book has it all: great characters, a tight, twisty plot, and fantastic narration. I was drawn in from the beginning and sorry to see it end. Off to look for more books by this author.
