Chloe's life turned upside down last year when her parents split up. Causing Chloe and her mom to move back to Joyful, Texas. Being the new kid in high school is not fun especially in a small town where everyone has always known everyone else. The good news is that Chloe's next door befriends her and helps her adjust to her new life. She also ends up getting help from an unsuspecting source Chase. Chase is a foster child and also feels like he knows Chloe somehow but he doesn't want to bring it up until he has answers.
In Another Life is told in multiple perspectives of Chloe, Chase, and a person we meet later on in the story.

Overall I really enjoyed In Another Life. Chloe and Chase's storylines were fascinating to me. We have Chase who is a foster kid and has a lot of guilt about things he had no control over in his childhood. Then we have Chloe who up until recently was from a happy family. The more they investigate Chloe's adoption, and the more they learn the more heartbreaking it becomes.
I'm not going to lie both Chase and Chloe annoyed me at times because of how secretive they were about certain things. But I also get why they were secretive about those things and how they thought they would hurt the other person if they told the truth. This type of situation is a difficult one for an adult to deal with, so for two high schoolers trying to figure this out mostly on their own, it's got a bit much at times. So many different emotions are involved in this story from Chase's guilt about things, to Chloe having to come to terms with the reality of her adoption its a lot.
The mystery part of this book wasn't that big of a mystery in my opinion. It was fairly obvious from the beginning in my opinion because of certain things. The only thing that was really scary or mysterious in my opinion was the part surrounding how she came to be adopted. That got scary the more we learned about it.
I do think this was an interesting book and I liked how the whole focus wasn't just constantly on her adoption. We have the side story of her adoptive parents drama, and Chloe's relationship with her parents, and Chase. Chase's storyline was one that I also really liked because of who his foster parents were and how he had big plans for his future and how he wanted to be better than his bio father was.
I can't wait to read more by C.C. Hunter in the future!

CC Hunter has taken such an interesting topic with In Another Life. There are so many questions to be answered. Is it even possible for Chloe Holden to be Emily Fuller? Was she kidnapped? Given away? Did her birth parents give her up willingly or was she stolen from them leaving them heartbroken? Were her adoptive parents in on the kidnapping? Did they kidnap her themselves? If they weren't, who did kidnap Chloe? What happens when you find out that you have two sets of parents who love you? A topic such as this immediately piques the interest of the reader, and I wanted to know the answer to all of these questions and more.

I had a few moments where I felt like things happening in In Another Life were unrealistic. The thing is, all of these events could happen, but the likelihood of any of them happening, much less all of them together, does make the story a little unrealistic. But you know what, I didn't mind too much because I was enjoying finding out the answers to all of my questions above. I will say that my enthusiasm lessened as we truly began to find out the ins and outs of Chloe's history--what really happened with the potential kidnapping. And then even a little bit more so as everything comes together and characters are forced to face decisions they made fifteen years ago.

I appreciated that Cash didn't keep his suspicions a secret from Chloe for too long. He did have to hold his tongue for a little while, but he approached her with his thoughts before too much time passed.

Most of my unresolved questions are about Cash. His history was touched on and described throughout the book, but there were a lot of gaps for Cash and the reader to fill with guesses. I mean in some ways I guess this is realistic. Cash wouldn't even know all of his own history, but I wish I was knew more. Even some of the potential for Cash's future was vague. I mean he wasn't the main character or storyline, but I still would have liked to have known. Regardless, this didn't change my feelings of the book.

In Another Life is going to get 3.5 Stars from me. It would have been 4, but the events I mentioned above surrounding Chloe's potential kidnapping did lessen my enthusiasm. Other than that, I read In Another Life quickly and was excited to get back to it if I had to put it down. Have you read In Another Life? What did you think? Let me know!

Realistic fiction by C. C. Hunter!
Thanks to Wednesday Books and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review In Another Life by C. C. Hunter!
Chloe moved to Joyful, Texas with her mom after the divorce. She’s lived in Joyful before, when she was three years old and had just been adopted. She doesn’t really remember anything about it from before. Cash lives in a foster home with Ms. Fuller. She’s an amazing foster parent and truly cares about Cash. Cash knows that Ms. Fuller lost her daughter a long time ago and he wants to help her feel better. The story jumps around and finally transitions more smoothly after the first quarter of the book. I felt like I became more invested in the characters of Chloe and Cash after that point. The story involves con artists, kidnapping, deception, friendship and family. With all of the events, the two strong main characters and the author’s writing style, In Another Life is an enjoyable read worth 4 stars!

First of all, thanks to NetGalley and Meghan from Wednesday Books for sending me and eARC in exchange for a honest review.
You have to know English isn’t my first language, so feel free to correct me if I make some mistakes while writing this review.


After her adoptive parents' divorce, Chloe Holden moves with her mother to Joyful, Texas. She has always known about her adoption when she was only three years old, but still her parents' split-up feels like she's reliving the trauma of being ripped away from everything she's ever known as familiar.
It doesn't help that her father is dating a woman who's not even ten years older than Chloe and that her mother's cancer is maybe in remission.

After a weekend spent to El Paso, Chloe's father is bringing her back to Joyful and once they stopped to a gas station, in a rage due to an argument between the two of them, Chloe bumps into a boy. When Chloe says she's sorry, the boy first is confused and then is glaring at her. Chloe is even more perplexed when the boy tells her to stay away and to drop whatever it is the thing she has planned to do - but what does it mean?

Over the years, Cash Colton moved through different foster families - now it's the Fullers' turn. With a past full of mistakes that makes him feel guilty about, due to a father who taught him to cheat, to steal and to take advantage of those vulnerable, Cash knows a con when he sees one. The Fullers lost a child fifteen years earlier and never forgot her, so Cash doesn't want to see them hurt.
When he sees this girl with a striking resemblance with the age progression photo of Emily Fuller, Cash is sure the girl is in town to con the Fullers. So he starts to dig online and in Chloe's past, set to discover what her intentions are.


Cash gets close to Chloe to figure out who she really is and if she's sincere about it.
It irked me the way too fast they start liking each other - even more at the speed they confess their feelings to each other. First, Cash's intentions have nothing to do with Chloe as a person with her own feelings and thoughts - let's not talk about the way he stares at her bordering on stalking. Second, they don't know each other enough - I mean, Chloe pours out her problems about her family and he clams up without sharing anything about himself, but she doesn't know he approached her with a lie.

Then things start to go in the right direction - and with the right timing.
They both suffered - Cash because of his father and Chloe because she has always felt a void, even though her parents love her so much and she had a life filled with so much happiness until her parents' divorce. Now she's remembering a voice telling her her mom and dad didn't want her anymore, that's why she was being adopted.
They lean on each other and that instant-like at first didn't sit well with me and I feared an insta-love, but that softens the more they spend time together and know each other better.

Nothing ominous or intimidating happens in the first half of the book. On a second thought, I think is better this way because you need that time to put Chloe in the right mental condition to want answers and the truth - a truth she's afraid will hurt every party involved no matter what.
Things start moving in the second half, when someone gets word Chloe is asking around about her biological parents. And no, that someone doesn't like it very much - here my anxiety went spiking.

I appreciated the double point of view - Chloe's is in first person and Cash's is in third person, so this gives us the oppotunity to know their thoughts and their lives more closely.
I read an eARC copy, so I'm sure a couple of little things will be fixed - I'm especially talking about a blank space signaling the change in the point of view: since the narrative goes on without interruption inside a chapter, I was a little confused the first time it happened because nothing prepared me to the change. Then I became accostumed to it, but still.

Even if my initial expectations led me to believe the mystery aspect would've been bigger, I'm satisfied about the way the author took her time to explore a topic like adoption and the consequently perpetual conflict caused by the abandonment. Because Chloe loves her parents and doesn't want to hurt them, feeling disloyal just hinting about her biological parents. Because the Fullers are still searching their daughter and that pain never faded. Because there are different kinds of love and affection that create a chaos of emotions, fears and conflicts - because, as inevitable as it is, someone is gonna end up hurt and it's not fair for anyone of the party involved.
And, about Cash, the author tackles the way foster kids are judged in the wrong way based on their parents.

I liked it and sure, you can guess the direction it's going to take if you read other books on the subject, but still I recommend it.

(3.5 stars)

I’d like to thank Wednesday Books for letting me be a part of the blog tour. My review is completely honest.

You guys know I’m a sucker for the cheesy romance with tension – both sexual and angst, some kissing, typical good looks, etc. The summary drew me in because of the concept between these two characters. I’ll say that it didn’t disappoint, but it did in some parts.

This book is about a girl named Chloe who moves to Joyful, Texas. I wonder if this place really exists, though. Anyway, she lives with her mom who is a cancer survivor and is extremely bitter over her illness and the fact that her husband (Chloe’s dad) cheated with a much younger woman. When Chloe attends her first day at a new school, she starts to interact with Cash, who believes she is a con woman trying to get money from his foster parents, who have had their child missing for fifteen years. But, here is the twist while these two team up to solve this mystery: is Chloe the missing child?

Let’s start off with the characters. I think they fit the typical gushy teen romance main characters. The girl has boobs, which is unfortunately mentioned quite a lot for some reason. She is pretty, there is a hard life going on, she is new. The guy, Cash, is a hard ass. He throws punches when he is pushed far enough, he is handsome and he has issues, too. These kind of characters, though, don’t turn me off. I love it because it’s always a different story as to how they get together and I eat up that tension. It just makes me swoon and root for the couple.

So, their relationship. I’ll admit that this is a total insta-love thing. Well, maybe more of an insta-attraction, if that exists. Chloe and Cash have a spark and some readers might think it’s only because Cash believes Chloe is the missing child and that is all they have in common. No, they learn a lot more about each other along the way. They have little arguments, they push each other mentally and logically, but the connection is just there. It’s angsty, romantic, sexy and I loved it. The insta-whatever wasn’t the best because I can’t really agree with that. Maybe that’s a personal thing, I don’t know.

Let’s get down to the stuff that turned me off and disappointed me. The storyline is great. I had my world tipped while reading certain parts. I read one scene in class and my mouth dropped open in shock. Thankfully, nobody saw me. But, I applaud C.C. Hunter for letting that happen. You gotta have some shock factor with these romances. What really disappointed me was the detailing and the flow of certain chapters. The detailing was off. Once a paragraph started or a scene started or even dialogue started, it would be cut abruptly and go to something else. It caused the flow to give me whiplash. Sometimes, it was too fast. I might be a hypocrite in saying this, considering my history with writing, but sometimes, it read like Fanfiction. Like, if you are still kind of new with Fanfiction but you are getting some of the skills together to not make it all happen in one chapter. Does that make sense? I mean, when I started Fanfiction years ago, my writing was crap. I grew and I look back at those stories and cringe, but I’m proud of how I have grown. But, this isn’t about me.

I loved the story all together, but sometimes, it just went too fast and too jumpy. The ending was really abrupt, too. If you were to see it on screen, it might last all of five minutes, give or take a few. This is why I gave it 3.5 stars, but this doesn’t mean I did not love the story. The story, I suppose, is more important. If you still feel some sort of connection or feeling with the story, I think you’ve accomplished plenty as an author and you’ve made a reader happy. I know I was with the outcome either way.

I gave this book 4 stars. It was a really wild story arc. Going into this book I wasn't sure what I expected. I have read quite a few of this author's works. I enjoy her paranormal books a bit more than her contemporary, but it was still something I had a great time reading.

Chloe Holden has just moved from the home she has always known to Texas. That's always a good way to start off a book. Also, I'm not surprised this is set in Texas. ANyway, Chloe has a lot of things she needs to juggle from trying to make new friends, to making sure her mother doesn't sink into a deep depression, to finding out if she was kidnapped as a baby. Wild from start to finish. If you're interested in Young Adult Mysteries then this book may be for you.

Cash Colton grew up a con. He had a strained relationship with his father, stunting his ability to bond with his foster family, one that actually seems to care. Cash meeting Chloe initially assumes she is a con because of the resemblance she has to the stolen daughter of his foster parents and thus ensues the wild ride.

There was a little while there where Chloe was driving me crazy. There were so many questions that were unanswered and she just didn't want to know the answers. If something like this had happened to me I would have been unresting trying to find out the truth. She was so passive about it. I understand that she was trying not to hurt her mother's feelings and such but come on. I think she should have talked with her mother about what she thought was happening, and maybe her mother would have been able to help her in some way. I think the fact that Chloe was keeping secrets made things a bit worse in the end.

This is one of those books where you just need to get past the first couple of chapters and then you really get into it. It took me a while to read the first 10 percent of it, but then I read the rest in 2 days. It is very fast paced once you gain some momentum with it.

Overall, if you enjoy a little mystery, a little action, a little bit of dysfunction, and a tad bit of romance then I would suggest reading this one.

This book and I did not get along at all. With the depictions of the characters (especially the inner monologue of Chloe specifically stating she has B-cup boobs.... why.), the fact that Cash is a "hero" because he stopped a girl from getting raped only to have her deny it because she wanted to be a cheerleader, and the fact that the adoption agency faked that Chloe was the product of rape so they could get away with their deeds, I cannot recommend this. And those items just scratch the surface of everything that was wrong with this book.

This is the second book I’ve read from this author and I must say… I’m very impressed. I don’t know how In Another Life and This Heart of Mine compare with her paranormal romances, but I am positively in love with C.C. Hunter’s writing style. I think it’s absolutely gorgeous, incredibly compelling and wonderfully emotional.

The moment I started reading In Another Life, I was immediately intrigued and excited. I had a good feeling this would be one of those books that would have me glued to the pages, holding on to my breath, clutching my heart, and preparing for the worst. Well, it surely did that and MORE. It was emotionally intense, but also filled with adorable lighthearted moments. It was heartbreaking, but also sweet and charming. It made me cry, but it also made me smile, laugh and swoon. It had all the worst and the best FEELS and I loved it.

As I’ve already said, I really loved the writing style. Not only was it easy to read, but it’s just so beautifully affecting and evocative. I felt what the characters felt and it was an excruciatingly amazing experience. I liked that there was a good balance between the heavy drama, the light mystery, the sweet intimate scenes, and the adorable heartwarming moments. The characters were interesting, likable, and realistic. I loved Cash and Chloe and rooted for them so hard… not just for them to be together and have their romantic HEA, but also to find their own happiness as individuals. The romance was swoony, sweet and relatable. I liked that there were some challenge and problems in the relationship and that made the story more interesting. I also enjoyed the mystery part and trying to guess what really happened. Even though I would have liked more build-up, anticipation, and suspense, I still found myself anxious and thrilled with the twists and turns. The ending had me in tears, but it also filled me with warmth and joy. This was truly a lovely read and I enjoyed everything about this book.

In Another Life by C.C. Hunter broke my heart over and over, but also made me feel so much love and hope. I liked the message of this story about finding yourself, forgiveness, trust, love, and learning how to move on from pain and anger. It’s absolutely a wonderful story and I cannot wait to read more from Hunter.

I received an electronic advanced reader copy of this book from the publisher, Wednesday Books, via Netgalley in exchange for a fair and honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This book was provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Thank you Wednesday Books!

In Another Life is a Young Adult Thriller about Chloe and Cash. Everything changed when they met each other, but is it a good change?

In Another Life is the second book I’ve read by C.C. Hunter and I didn’t really know what to expect. I really loved This Heart of Mine so I wanted to give this book a try. I don’t normally read Thrillers but I really enjoyed this one. The story was so interesting and I wanted to know what really happened.

I really loved the main characters, Chloe and Cash. We read in their perspectives as well as in someone else’s perspective. I’m not going to say who because that’s a spoiler. I love that we get to read in Chloe and Cash’ perspective because I love getting to know both of the main characters and not one.

One of the characters that really annoyed me was Chloe’s mother. I know that she’s been through a lot but she kept on being mean about Chloe’s father and I know that depression is really hard but you cannot let your daughter be the mother.

Besides that, I really enjoyed reading In Another Life. This book reminded me a bit of Hopeless by Colleen Hoover, which is not something negative because Hopeless was an amazing book! In Another Life was such a good read, it was well written and fast paced. I highly recommend In Another Life to anyone who’s looking for a good YA Thriller!

4.5/5*

Did you ever have that feeling when you pick up a book and after reading the first pages you know you're going to be drawn into the story? Well, that is how I felt when I read In Another life!
From the start, I loved Chloe's character; at first sight, she appears as this funny, kind, and friendly girl who just moved in the neighborhood. But when you peel the layers, you discover someone who is going through a rough and emotional time, and she is left to go through it on her own. When her parents divorced, she had to leave her house, school, and friends behind, and as soon as she arrived in this new town, she got thrown into this mysterious affair. Little does she know, now, she founds herself torn between two lives; but her curiosity is piqued when flashbacks and blurry memories resurface once she arrived in Joyful. You always need a good duo in a mystery book, and Cash and Chloe happen to be a good one. They decide together to start delving into the past, but when they discover that Chloe's adoption was not that legal, something more dangerous comes out of the dark!
I doubted Cash's motives for almost half of the book; at the beginning, I didn't know what he was hiding and why he was so interested in Chloe. When you first meet him - from Chloe's POV - he appears as a crazy guy who just saw a ghost. But then when you switch to his POV, he acts like a professional stalker; eavesdropping on Chloe's conversation, checking her social media * creepy guy alert *, waiting for her outside the school, to ask her questions he already knew the answers. It's such a weird behavior, and at first, you might not understand why he does all that but later when we discover the real reason behind this broody and secretive type, you can't help but fall in love with this character, and root for him and Chloe! He is such a cute & tough misunderstood cinnamon roll; although I still had this tiny shadow of a doubt about his motivations because I always protect my heart when I'm faced with this kind of character just in case, I end up being wrong about him.
When Chloe and Cash met for the first time in the beginning, I knew for sure that these two would end up together; their encounter is not precisely a meet-cute, but we are not far from it. But then as you uncovered the secrets one by one with Chloe, I started to wonder if maybe that would not end up being the case. Can a relationship overcome that many secrets?
I don't want to go into too much detail though, because I want this review to be as spoiler free as much as I can, and also because it sucks to spoil the action of a thriller story.
In overall, the story was finely woven and packed with mind-blowing details that had me doubt everything and I couldn't help but anticipate what was about to happen; it also made me change my views on the characters many times throughout the story. The plot didn't take too long to start, and we are immediately thrown into the action, which I love because there's nothing worse than reading pages after pages and waiting for something to happen!
And that's why I loved reading this book, because you can feel the mystery unfolding around the characters, and you just can't put that book down for one second. I remember finishing the book at night around 2 am because I couldn’t stop until I found out what happened! And let me tell you that when you have to wake up early the next day, it better be good; but don't worry it was really worth it!
I will recommend this book to any mystery/thriller action book lover if you also like a little bit of YA romance mixed with suspense and build-up tension, then you won't want to miss reading In Another Life!

Many thanks to Wednesday Books and Netgalley for the chance to read this novel!

This was one of the most entertaining YA books I’ve read in a long time. It made me long for my younger self! It would have been precisely the type of book I would have loved in my early high school days with bits of mystery, suspense, and romance all added in to make an interesting story.

Overall, this was a well-paced novel that kept my interest from beginning to end. I haven’t read many mysterious adoption stories and this was a nice change of genre and topic. I liked the contemporary coming-of-age feeling at the beginning of the story and slow morph to more of a thriller by the end. The suspenseful feel was there throughout, yet there was a sense of being bottle fed each detail. I hoped for less predictability and more surprise from such a novel. Unfortunately, the ending felt a bit rushed in my opinion as well. I hoped to see more of the events we came to expect in the story being fleshed out in further detail.

I also found Chloe to be a bit harsh or pushy in dealing with her mother’s depression resulting from her failed marriage. I would have liked to see more empathy from her. It was a great opportunity for character growth that wasn’t used to its full potential. Her mom’s life had drastically changed, in a horrible way I can’t possibly imagine trying to survive through, and her daughter just seemed to add to the drama she was facing. As you can see from my perspective, I was too old to read this book since I was able to better identify with the mother than the daughter’s point of view.

I think this would be a great read for it’s intended audience, but less so for adult lovers of YA. I wish I could have read this one as a teen myself! Pick up your own copy on March 26th or pre-order today.

In Another Life is written specifically for younger readers, I’m not the target audience. However, that did not quell my enjoyment of the book by any means, it only suggests that I had to read it from a different viewpoint. Chloe’s life going into her final year of high school (senior year for those outside of the US) is already depressing. Her loving. adoptive parents have gone through a horrible, ugly divorce due to her father’s cheating. Her mother is depressed and barely coping leaving Chloe to pick up the pieces. She doesn’t really have high hopes for a great year until she meets Cash. Naturally there is a romance between the two and it is sweet. He also has ulterior motives which I won’t go into and spoil the book for you.

There isn’t a huge amount of mystery here, it is more a coming of age story and, truly, I think that is how I would have branded the book but I never agree with the genres that are slapped on books so this could just be me. It is a very well written contemporary, coming of age, discovery, teen romance book and if you like those and/or know of a teen who might, then I highly recommend In Another Life. The story, from beginning to end, is captivity and the characters are one with whom I identified and empathized. It is definitely a book I would have chosen to read when I was 14 or 15 years old, perhaps a bit younger or older depending on the maturity of the reader.

In Another Life will be available at WEDNESDAY BOOKS on its publication day, March 26, 2018. Thank you to @Wednesdaybooks and Meghan Harrington for my advance copy.

Overall, I still really enjoyed this book. The writing was good but the lack of consistency and lack of perspective change affected my reading the most. The plot was well thought out and pulls the reader into the book. The mystery of how this all happens keeps the reader interested. The characters started off flat but gained some substance as the book progressed. I particularly liked the relationship between the two main characters. Thank you so much to Wednesday Books for providing me with a copy of this book!

I could definitely see this story translate well as a Netflix film. You hear that Netflix? Please and thank you.

Chloe’s senior year is the pits: on top of her parents divorcing, she is starting at a new school. Ripped away from her old life and friends she must start over while taking care of her mother and resenting her father. Oh and the real kicker…someone suspects that she was in fact kidnapped as a child and her real parents live nearby. As if high school isn’t hard enough?!

It’s fast paced and holds your attention. You can whip through this book in a few days. As a young adult book, I felt it was relatable to high school life and teenage emotions. Being adopted, or a foster child, added another complex layer of emotions; and, author C.C. Hunter explored a wide range of internal battles with love and accepting love.

Thank you to the publishers for providing me the arc of In Another Life in exchange for my honest review.

This was unexpected. I knew I would enjoy it, but was unaware exactly how much I'd love it! Both Chloe and Cash are exceedingly relatable for different characteristics and I loved them both. Chloe is going through her parents' rough divorce, as well as a move during high school, so she's very much struggling to cope with all the changes in her life. Plus, we find out her mother has been very sick lately and struggles with depression, so there's already a lot going on with her. Cash is a kid who's been in the foster system for years and has learned to trust no one because they probably won't stick around. He also thinks people are inherently trying to pull tricks on you due some things that occurred in his childhood. Match made in hell, right? But I felt it worked well.

The theme of foster homes and adoption (which I don't really see much in YA) really got to me, as I had my fair share of touches with the system growing up, making for an emotional read. Both Chloe and Cash are affected by the care system in different ways, which is kind of the main aspect of the story and why they are connected in the first place. Chloe's biological parents are Cash's foster parents, so he knows who she is as soon as she steps into him. I'll admit, I was shocked by the beginning scene... I couldn't figure out why it was related at all, but that quickly becomes apparent once we see more of Cash's scenes. There was also a particular scene I loved between Cash and his foster father about consent and I loved the SHIT out of it! So good!

This story is told in alternating PoV's chapter by Chapter, so we get both Chloe and Cash telling the story. I thought this really added to the experience, as we get details from one that we might not necessarily get if it was just one PoV or the other. It is a VERY fast-paced novel with a lot of foreshadowing to keep you invested as you read. I read this in less than 24 hours because I simply could NOT put it down. I needed to know what happened ASAP.

Complete FIVE STAR read for me!

This was such a gripping read that had me hooked from beginning till end. The emotions of happiness ,anger and sadness were explored in such a realistic way i felt i was in the book.

In Another Life was a quick read, I flew through it in just two sittings, and found it to be marginally interesting.
I love stories about kidnapped kids being raised by different parents, I have no idea why, and so the plot really drew me to this book, but the end result felt pretty lacklustre.
My main problem with this story was the writing.
My favourite thing about this book was the characters, more specifically Cash.

Review of IN ANOTHER LIFE:

IN ANOTHER LIFE is a heartwarming and emotionally powerful story about seventeen-year-old Chloe, who moves with her cancer-stricken mother from El Paso to Joyful, Texas, because of her parents' divorce. They move into her late grandmothers' home, and Chloe starts in a new school. Anxious over her mother and furious about her father's infidelities, Chloe encounters Cash Colton, also 17, foster child of wealthy physicians, who suspects Chloe is a con artist like his sociopathic late father. Chloe resembles the daughter of his foster parents, kidnapped at age three almost 15 years ago. Both Chloe and Cash suffer serious trust issues, but they must learn to trust each other if they are to discover the truth.

Chloe Holden’s life has been flipped upside down when her parents get divorced and her mother moves her to a new city. Dealing with the aftershocks of the divorce and her mother’s burgeoning health issues isn’t easy, but now Chloe has learned a secret from her past that could change everything that she has ever known about herself for the past 17 years.

This isn’t exactly a new premise, but I was sucked in from the very beginning. I did find that the story itself felt a little drawn out and prolonged for what it was, since the reader knows exactly what the reveal is going to be for a long time before it actually happens. With all that being said, I still wasn’t bored. I did find that after all the time I spent reading, the ending of the story was a little too easy, but overall this was a pretty enjoyable read.

In Another Life was a quick, entertaining read. While the outcome was quite convenient and predictable, it was still worth the read.

It was easy to to feel for Chloe because she was dealing with so much in such a short amount of time. It was interesting to think about if you were in Chloe's place would you really want to know the truth?

At the same time, I wish Cash would have allowed the Fullers to be a full part of his life. I did appreciate his willingness to be so supportive of Chloe even though he was still trying to deal with his own past.

Overall it was an enjoyable book!
