I thought this book was GREAT! 1st Kate Pepper book of hers I read & now I am hooked on her books! This story was very exciting....the type of book that I really enjoy because I just couldn't put it down!!! If a book doesn't beckon me to keep picking it up, even to read just a page or 2 when I have a chance, then it isn't what I feel is a GREAT book! The connection between the "twin sisters" & how they relate to each other is what makes this story so intriguing....I gave this book 5 stars & would have given it 10 if I could! You won't be disappointed if you read this book!!!

Baby on left hip, suitcase in right hand, Annie leaves her home to go to her twin-sister's house. She had discovered that her husband was cheating on her-a charge her husband denied. The proof was in the email love messages and the charges to her account that Bobbie could not explain. She would start a new life for her and her baby with the help of her much-loved twin sister, Julie.
This is a story of troubled relationships, identy theft, murder, kidnapping, and the problem of trying to find the one person you can trust, and the one person who is trying to take all of your life-your baby, identity, husband, marriage-all without you ever knowing what's happening until it's too late to stop it.
Written in a way that captures your interest from the first page. moving quickly so that you never become bored! There is NO dragging point in this book. And don't think it's over...the last chapter will turn everything back around and start you thinking all over again. You will enjoy this book very much and the ending will cause you to start re-thinking the whole story. Double the pleasure!

I couldn't relate to Annie at all. There is no build up to the separation with her husband. Chapter one, first page - Annie is packed and leaving. You don't have a chance to get acquainted with her or her situation. How can you sympathize with her when you don't know what he did. This made it tough for me to get into this story. I instantly felt sorry for the husband and thought Annie was just being an over-reactive bitch. And I didn't like her twin sister, Julie a bit. She just seemed shady and sneaky to me.
It finally got interesting when Annie is arrested for embezzlement and the surprise ending really took me by surprise. Surely didn't see that coming at all. All in all it ended okay but definitely not worth the five hours it took to read.
