I could not put Identity by Nora Robert’s down! This book was so good- the suspense kept me on the edge of my seat. I also felt like the characters were quite realistic. Roberts is skilled in character development and setting. The plot and pace were perfectly timed! I never seem to get tired of reading Nora Roberts!
So, yes, I definitely recommend reading Identity if you love suspense and romance.

A well written story that will hold your interest from beginning to ending. Another great story from Nora Roberts.

Nora Roberts is the queen of romantic suspense for a reason! She continues her reign with this latest captivating story about a woman who can't seem to escape her past no matter how hard she tries. It was enjoyable and I truly couldn't put it down.

Thank you SMP and Netgalley for my copy.

Nora Roberta can do no wrong I my humble opinion. This book came here to serve and it did. I loved both the plot because not only it had me hooked but also was engaging enough, and also the main characters were kinda relatable. Overall, it was a full 5 stars read for me

Nora Roberts can literally do no wrong. She’s got a formula and it always works, ALWAYS!
Romance, suspense, thriller, and a splash of sexy time. It’s seriously got everything!

What can I say? Nora Roberts is hands down one of the best writers ever. I love her range. This one was so good.

Roberts is one of my favorite authors and I have read almost everything she has written. I absolutely loved this book, the story and the characters. This is an easy, enjoyable read. I literally could not put it down. I highly recommend this novel to any new and old readers of Nora Roberts.

Thank you to Netgalley and St. Martin's Press for this ARC of Identity by Nora Roberts.

I was excited to dive into this book based on the synopsis, and well known author.

I loved the first 10%-15% of the book - we get great character building, and suspense right away.

As the initial thrill wore off, I struggled to continue, but I did in order to provide a true opinion.

Some issues:

What I didn’t love -too much repetitive dialogue. I felt like the same scenes and conversations were repeated, without adding much value to the story.

While I loved the epilogue, I also didn’t find anything special about Morgan’s relationship with Miles. I didn’t really feel their romance.

Without giving too much away - my favorite parts were the pages involving Gavin. It’s almost as if the writing changes. It’s riveting, exciting, and well done.

Thank you to the author, publisher, and, NetGalley for the opportunity to provide an unbiased, honest review.

Thanks for NetGalley and Macmillan for an advance readers copy. It has been a while since I read. Nora Roberts book and she sure didn’t disappoint. Very fast paced and gripping novel. Thankfully I have the week off so I could read any chance I got! I did not want to put this down at all. The details and imagery were at the top of Nora’s writing. I wish I had read the synopsis of the book before I got past the dinner date with Nina and Sam because I definitely didn’t see it coming and wouldn’t have. I also want to try a lot of the drinks mentioned in the book! Now I am asking myself why I haven’t read a Nora Roberts book in awhile…

Well written and captivating story. The story follows Morgan Nash back to her hometown of Vermont while she is trying to rebuild her life after getting conned by “Luke” where he stole everything from her and murdered her best friend. While she is rebuilding her life this Like character is working on plotting his revenge since Morgan was the intended victim.

This book about an Identity Theft Serial Killer will have you sitting on the edge of your seat! It got pretty intense at times, but I couldn’t stop reading. I had to know what happened next. The author nailed the mentality of the psychopath following Morgan and gave me the creeps. I highly recommend this book to readers who like a good thriller!

Thank you, NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for the ARC in exchange for my honest review!

This was a good suspense/thriller from Nora Roberts. It was light on the romance but the mystery kept me on the edge of my seat.

I forgot how much I love Nora Roberts. I used to read her books all the time but haven’t picked one up in at least 10 years. I’m asking myself WHY?!? This one was so good. It immediately grabbed my attention and held it until the very end. Morgan Nash grew up an army brat. All she has ever really wanted is to settle down and grow some roots. She has a plan and a budget and she is working toward her goals. Then she crosses paths with a con man/serial killer. He steals her identity and leaves her broke but doesn’t succeed in taking her life. She is “the one that got away” and he just can’t have that. Morgan returns to Vermont to stay with her mother and grandmother and wait for him to finish what he started.

The story is a mix of suspense and romance. It lulls a bit in places but it’s never boring. There were no plot twists but they aren’t needed. The slow climb to the climax creates so much anticipation that you just keep turning pages. The character development is amazing. There is a clear delineation between the protagonist and the antagonist which produces the appropriate emotions when reading their parts. You get strong female characters, sweet and sensitive male characters, and a seriously depraved, psychopathic antagonist. This one really had everything that I was looking for in a romantic, suspense novel. This one did not disappoint!

Have been reading Nora Roberts for many years and yet again, she does not disappoint. Romance and suspense are woven into the fabric of this novel and TBH it was near impossible to put down. The characters in this book were pretty amazing, as they always are in her books; and the story never stopped twisting and turning. As Nora Roberts has evolved herself she has evolved in her writing. Not too many authors I can thank for romance, suspense, mystery, and thrills all in one place.

Thank you to NetGalley, Nora Roberts, and St. Martin's Press for an ARC copy of "Identity".

"Identity" is a gripping thriller that instantly grabbed my attention. Nora Roberts masterfully weaves together elements of mystery, romance, and psychological tension.

It explores the psychology of manipulation and the vulnerability of trust. Nora Roberts delves into the mind of a cold-hearted con artist, highlighting the chilling tactics used to exploit and deceive others. This aspect of the story is both fascinating and disturbing, and it raises thought-provoking questions about the nature of trust and the lengths people will go to in order to protect themselves.

With its well-crafted suspense, engaging characters, and thought-provoking themes, this book left me eagerly anticipating Nora Robert's next book. I highly recommend adding it to your summer reading list.

I loved this book!!! I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I loved the mix between romance and suspense. It’s a griping story about identity theft and how devastating it can be but it’s also about courage, perseverance, and the importance of love and support of friends and family. I loved how the main character, Morgan, went to live with her mother and grandmother in order to get her life back together. And I loved how Morgan wins in the end!
Thank you to Netgalley and St Martins Press for the advanced copy in return for my honest review.

“Karma’s not just a bitch, she’s a righteous bitch”

The plot was really great and I think that the slower flow worked great. The book takes place over a year plus which I applaud. It always used to drive me crazy when romance books had the hero and heroine fall for each other in like a week and then pivot to an epilogue like 3 months later and the heroine is pregnant. It makes sense in terms of what Morgan goes through why this had to be a slower burn romance.

I'm entirely shocked that I have yet to read a Nora Roberts book in all my years of reading, until now. And now, I want to immediately go back and devour every single one of her books. Identity is truly a sweeping saga of redemption, survival, romance, suspense, and family.

Identity follows the story of Morgan Albright who is the subject of a brutal crime where her best friend is murdered during a dinner party by the man she is currently seeing. He then completely upends her life forcing her to move back to Vermont to be with her mother and grandmother and start over. As she rebuilds her life, the man who ruined her life heads out on the run determined to find Morgan and end what he intended to start.

I honestly couldn't put this book down. It was truly a beautiful story and I loved every minute of it.

Thank you, St. Martins Press and NetGalley for the eARC!

4.5*
Nora Roberts is such a fantastic writer, no matter the genre. I love her romance novels, whether contemporary or supernatural or somewhere in between, but I also really enjoy her romantic suspense/thrillers. And Identity tops that list. It was an engaging, suspenseful, thrilling read.
This story held me captive and I couldn't put it down. Morgan went through so much, it was hard to imagine, but also not. It's scary how something like this could happen to a person.
I liked seeing her growth over the course of the book, her strength really came through. She's someone you'd be happy to have in your corner.

Identity was just an all around winner.

Loved this one!!! This was a perfect blend of suspense and romance with a slow, dripping build-up!
Morgan Albright's bff has been murdered and she's afraid she's next so she relocates to a different state. She moves in with her family and gets a job as bartender manager. Will this psychopath be after her next? What about her family? The FBI get involved and they find out he's killing women all over the US and getting rich on their identities.
Thank you Netgalley, Nora Roberts and St.
Martins Press for letting me read "Identity" in exchange for an honest review.
