This was a great book, up until the ending. I couldn't put it down and read it in four hours. Cresswell always delivers the reader the right amount of suspense with romance mixed in.
Jessica was found hiding under a car when she was four years old after an accident that left several people dead, including the people that were believed to be her parents. A policeman on the scene found the little girl, and believing that she was now an orphan, took her home where she was eventually adopted by his son and daughter in law.
Twenty six years later she learns the devistating news that the person she thought she was for all those years was dead seven months before the accident. With the help of her ex husband, she works to unravel the truth of her real identity. While looking for the truth, her and her ex husband, Dan, try to come to terms why their marriage didn't work out and if they can make it work once more.
I was very satisfied reading this book, but I felt a major let down when I read the last page and found that the book ended how it did. I felt that the author should have gone into more depth about Constance and Ed, and Constance's return to the world. Cresswell makes the reader root for Constance, and then leaves you feeling bereft at the end of the book.
Overall, I would recommend this book.

Jasmine Cresswell has been writing great romances for the past 10 years, but now that she's turned her pen to romantic suspense, she will captivate even more readers. This fast paced story will shock you at the onset, but if you can keep reading, you will be hooked by the tender relationship divorcee Jessica Zajak shares with her ex-husband as they unravel Jessica's supposed death. This "romance noir" is as hard-boiled as detective fiction, but here Jessica has to accept her own character flaws before she is able to sort out her mysterious past and accept her new parentage

Found at the site of a terrible car accident as a girl, a woman finds herself struggling as an adult to accept that she is not who she had thought she was all these years and she does in fact have 2 living parents! Well written, it will keep you turning pages til the end.
