Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An excellent suspense/mystery!
Review: This is one of those books where you keep promising yourself "just one more chapter" before you go to bed. Suddenly, it's two in the morning and you've just-one-more-chaptered until you've finished the book! It's that good!

This story is fast-paced, full of detail and has a healthy dose of reality. I especially liked the italicized flashbacks interwoven throughout the story, which both gave clues to what was happening and filled us in on background.

Usually, you can guess the twist in suspense novels, which takes some of the fun out of them. Although I did guess one twist part way through the book, the ending took me totally by surprise! I cannot recommend this book highly enough!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Who is She Really, Nola or Stacy?
Review: Twenty-one year old Nola Elidad was happey when she married Alec and the couple started out on a new life together, then a trip to the grocery store changes everything. Jesse who insists Nola is really his wife Stacey, abducts her as she is leaving the store and locks her up in the basement of the home he swears is theirs. His plan is simple, he'll take care of Stacey during her "sickness" and gradually reintroduce her to her real life until her memory comes back. Once she understands he has no intention of hurting her, Nola tries to prove him wrong and reclaim her identity as Nola.

However, she is continuously shaken as the coincidences keep piling up, how Stacey's clothes fit her perfectly, the gaps in her memory, her familiarity with the house, Jesse's knowledge of her likes and dislikes, and especially the photos with people familiar to her (although she can't quite place them) and wedding photos with a younger Jesse and someone who looks exactly like herself, exchanging vows.

This five star book will grab you and hold your attention till the very last page as you travel through the novel and unravel the mystery of Nola along the characters themselves.
