Identity by Nora Roberts

Morgan Albright's childhood was spent moving place to place with her military father. All she's ever dreamt of is putting down roots and now it's her time. She's just bought a house of her own and is working two jobs to make it her dream home and also save money to eventually buy her own bar. At her bar job, she meets charming Luke and after starting a tentative relationship with him she invites him to a dinner party at her home. Just days later, she comes home to a break in, her roommate murdered, and her car gone. It turns out "Luke" is a serial killer who steals his victim's identity and his target was Morgan, not Nina. Now he's taken everything from her and she's forced to move back home to Vermont with her mother and grandmother. She takes a job in a nearby resort bar becoming close to the Jameson family who own and run the resort, especially the big boss Miles Jameson. But the killer hasn't forgotten the one that got away and as the threat looms over her, Miles and his family will do anything to protect her.
This is a great thriller romance from one of my favorite authors. She makes us feel how helpless Morgan was against this skilled identity thief, the terror of knowing he was still after her, the excitement and protection of a new relationship, and the love of family both of and new. The peeks into the serial killer's mind and motivations were chilling and the action at the end was perfection. I was so excited to get an early ARC of this book and it definitely didn't disappoint.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
