Fun and fast read. At first I was a little hesitant to read a book with 9/11 being a major part of the story line, given that I vividly remember it happening, but after being selected to read the ARC I gave it a shot.
I was pleasantly surprised, the plot was interesting and it moved quickly, I didn’t feel like the tragedy was exploited, and it had a solid ending that wrapped everything up with a mostly HEA. I figured out the twist about 3/4 on but I was still hooked enough to finish, so it earned a solid 4 stars from me.
My only real complaint is the way one of the MMCs spoke about women- “she smiled and I noticed her teeth were a little crooked so I lost interest.” “If she lost 20 lbs I’d date her.” Dude, you’re already married and have a bit on the side… don’t be such a pig.
Other than that- solid book.

Such a fantastic read. I enjoyed every minute. When Scott fakes his own death, thinking he has got away with millions, he quickly realises someone has outsmarted him. Now disappearing into a new life is no longer an option!
A perfect way to get me invested in the storyline from the outset, and I loved how the story unfolded. In the best way, with tension and twists galore!
