Description

Morgan Albright is finally living her best life. She’s put down roots in a small, friendly town outside of Baltimore and that’s extremely important given the vagabond life she led as an Army brat. Her best friend Nina Ramos is also her roommate, helping with the mortgage, and Morgan loves both of her jobs. She works for a wonderful family-owned home construction business and loves her part time job as a bartender. But it all shatters when the handsome IT expert Luke Hudson inserts himself into her life, leaving death, destruction and heartbreak in his wake. He’s actually Gavin Rozwell, a con artist who first charms his intended victim, steals her identity and then kills her as he leaves town. But, he had to leave before he could murder Morgan who remains the one who got away, forced to retreat to her mother’s home in Vermont, broken and destitute. If you are struggling with your identity or know someone who is, this book will help you. Andrew writes with great honesty, clarity and understanding. If you are wrestling in your personal or public life with these realities or issues I think you will read with increasing relief and gratitude. Two scriptures kept coming to mind “In your light, we see light” (Psalm 36:9) and “You will know the truth and the truth will set you free” (John 8:32). - Keith Sinclair, National Director Church of England Evangelical Council Nora Roberts is usually an easy read for me. I love thrillers that have a bit of romance to them. But this one just didn't quite do it for me. The beginning had me hooked and I was all about this mysterious man who then went nuts and took everything from her. I actually really liked that Roberts got a little dark and gory with this one. I liked the grumpy sunshine aspect of her new relationship with Miles. And the dog, Howl is amusing. He won’t play fetch with Miles but he will with Morgan. Too cute.

The richness of Fukuyama’s analysis is let down somewhat by his comparatively simplistic solutions. He puts forward two proposals. First, Fukuyama concludes that more emphasis needs to be placed on developing a sense of national identity that is stronger than that promoted by cosmopolitan institutions like the European Union and by the American left. While Fukuyama concedes that diversity is valuable, “diversity cannot be the basis for [national] identity in and of itself.” But then neither can ethnicity—let alone race—both of which entail their own dangers and vulgarities. Fukuyama claims that adopting a shared set of values—a creed—would be a good first step, although insufficient in itself. Immigrants also need to assimilate into the national value system, and the number of immigrants should be restricted. However, Fukuyama also claims that “liberal democracies benefit greatly from immigration, both economically and culturally” and does not specify how strict the assimilation criteria and restrictions should be. He begins to clarify this position by pointing to a number of case studies, such as France and the United States, but the proposal is still frustratingly vague. Second, Fukuyama calls for “ambitious social policies” to help the poor and underprivileged. What these policies should entail is left largely undefined, however. Fukuyama argues that Obama’s Affordable Care Act represented a good first step, but that much more needs to be done. Unfortunately, what further steps should be taken, particularly in countries that already enjoy universal public health coverage but are still dealing with inequality and nationalist populism, is left vague. How do you feel about the work of the Western missionaries? Are we led to see them as an imposition, or a necessary force for good? This extremely well-written and superbly edited book is a collection of international contributions that offer new insights into identity research from multiple disciplines. Its novel approach conceptualises identity as a fluid process that continues to develop. A brilliant contribution.’ So the heroine Morgan was about as annoying as any I’ve read. If I have to hear about sangria (cringe!!!) or frog fountains again in my entire lifetime I will barf. Seriously that was not necessary. Also, this is a thriller? No it’s not. Nothing thrilling here especially when it comes to her “ladies”. Vomit. Nora Roberts never fails to deliver romance suspense novels that are highly engaging with just the right blend of romance and suspense. Identity is another fantastic example of this author's highly entertaining story telling ability as she pens a standalone story incorporating the high tech crime of identity theft into an intriguing plot line that includes murder.It's just not that good. I just saw it was published per chapter at first, which I figure makes a lot of sense. It reads like a chapter-a-week-story. It has no logical story line. Every single chapter something bad happens and then the next chapter it's fixed. Way too many things happen without a logical reason for it. And still everything feels entirely predictable. The storyline is very staccato. Identity" is a masterfully crafted mystery thriller, expertly executed by Nora Roberts. The intricate web of secrets and suspense kept me guessing until the final moments, and the satisfying resolution tied everything together seamlessly. Roberts' prose is engaging and evocative, painting vivid pictures in the listener's mind and immersing them in the world she has created. Compassionate and compelling, insightful and instructive, Andrew Bunt’s excellent book sheds light and brings clarity to a subject often distorted by emotion and conflict. Few things are more important than establishing your true identity. I urge you not only to read it but help others by recommending it to them. - Terry Virgo, founder of NewFrontiers and author of 'God's Treasured Possession'

the chokehold this book had on me during the pandemic was insane 😭 so to say i was super excited to receive an *** is an UNDERSTATEMENT 🙏 St. Martin’s Press and Nora Roberts provided a complimentary digital ARC of this novel via Net Galley. All opinions expressed in this review are my own. Publication date is currently set for May 23, 2023. This review was originally posted at Mystery and Suspense Magazine.Jean-Marc asks why she is upset and she responds that "men don't turn to look at me anymore." [2] This remark serves as the crucial instant of the novel. It reveals a self identity of Chantal that alienates Jean-Marc's perception of his lover and thus himself. She also has many musings about fathers and observes children on the beach. This is a reoccurring theme within the novel and references her anxieties about the death of her child with a previous partner. She feels this period of her life was her prime, allowing a sense of unease and decline to shape her sense of self throughout the novel. In this light, society doesn’t appear far from Michel Houellebecq’s dystopian vision of France in Submission, where divisions between liberals and Muslims on one hand and “real French” voters on the other, leads to the collapse of secular democracy. Wood, Michael (16 July 1998). "On the Love Boat". The New York Review of Books . Retrieved 17 March 2020. anyways this book is basically about trinity, a small town girl who has recently lost her father, and leonidas, the lead singer in a band called x3. to complicate things further trin has sworn off music since the passing of her father, leaving her absolutely clueless too who leo & his siblings are. this is there chance of being 'normal' teenages, i mean whats the worst that can happen? 👀😶

This story is long, yes, but I was never bored. I loved the way the suspense stuff, which was appropriately creepy, blended amongst the everyday happenings in Morgan’s new life in small-town Vermont. I just love this book! It is subtle and at times intense. Roberts builds tough resilient characters along with some wonderful family connections. I think this is a winner all around with the multiple aspects of romance, family, suspense, and crime tension. I could go on and on, but definitely put this one on your list!Things move forward nicely in the last hour or from chapter 30 onward. It's a little comical that the bad guy has drastically changed from who they were in the beginning. Wish as a whole it was mostly exciting as the last part. Hopefully, I'll enjoy her next novel more. 2.5⭐ Hegel pointed to a fundamental truth about modern politics, that the great passions unleashed by events such as the French Revolution were at base struggles over dignity. The inner self was not just a matter of personal reflection; its freedom was to be embodied in rights and law. The democratic upsurge that would unfurl in the two centuries after the French Revolution was driven by peoples demanding recognition of their political personhood, that they were moral agents capable of sharing in political power. Below are my play by play thoughts while reading the book — though I don’t think I’m spoiling anything they could be interpreted I suppose as spoilers. Arjun Neil Alim is a 3rd year student of History and International Relations at the LSE. He writes for The Evening Standard and The Independent and is currently preparing a thesis on the continental philosophical origins of Francis Fukuyama’s political thought. As interest in the study of identity has steadily blossomed, this handbook comes at the perfect time. The chapters, written by an impressive roster of international scholars from many disciplines, are creative and expansive in scope, providing both comprehensive overviews and new insights. It is sure to be an essential resource for years to come.’
