A young woman who is not what she seems becomes a surrogate for a woman who can't carry to term. Good suspense, some supernatural. Christian-themed.

I really enjoyed this book. It catches you from the beginning and does not let you go. I could not put it down. This is the first book I've read by Mackel, but I intend to read more. Yet another author to be added to my list of favorites I think.

It definetly keeps you reading. A definite roller coaster ride. Leaves you wondering what will happen next.

Kyle and Bethany Dolan reel from years of infertility, miscarriages, and finally, a disastrous hysterectomy. They are desperate to find the perfect surrogate mother to carry their last frozen embryo. Sable Lynde, a computer genius with a dark history, is desperate to escape her own inner demons, her dark past, and a dangerous loan shark. Sable assumes the identity of a surrogacy candidate so perfect that the Dolans welcome her into their family without reservation. As the pregnancy progresses, the dangers of Sable's deception escalate until the unthinkable happens-Sable's dark demons spill out into the Dolans' lives-even as she lies in a coma. A thrill-ride of suspense and terror, this novel leads readers to a breathtaking climax. Engaging characters, contemporary issues, and deep questions of faith make this story an unforgettable read.

Good book. A little slow towards the end.

This book kind of creeped me out. The story line was interesting but the whole book was poorly written over-all.

Very compelling, gripping story. Hard to stop once you've started.

I could not put this book down and I only find a few books that catch my attention from the first page and keep it until I have read the book to the very end. There is suspence throuout the entire book. I think it is one of the best books I have read in a long time
