4⭐ This was one of Nora Roberts more modern thrillers. It did involve serial killers and stolen identities. It wasn‘t a full-on romance, but romance was at its core, and did have a happily ever after. This book was a little long, but you usually expect that from Nora Roberts. I did thoroughly enjoy listening to this. It was a great way to pass the time while I was working on other things.

Murder mystery with romance. Good story, likable characters; a Robert's classic through and through.

It was like enjoying two stories simultaneously. Morgan lives a quiet life until she crosses paths with the wrong man. She was his target and her will not rest until she's dead.

𝟒⭐Since she‘s well established as an Author…all I really want to say is this was an intriguing story that was well written, although, for me personally, I would say that it was rather over-written. I‘m not a fan of having so many inane aspects added to a story. Other than that it was a perfect blend of romantic suspense and a cozy atmosphere with some gory details thrown in to keep it from feeling too warm & fuzzy. The narration was terrific.

Well I started this audiobook thinking I was going to love it! Strong female lead, depraved and terrifying killer, what isn‘t there to love? Then the main character moved back home and it all fell apart for me. In comes the romance with a truly misogynistic love interest (he literally starts making decisions for her when they are barely dating, and when she complains he tells her to deal with it 🤬🤯) and a town where the police chief is best ⬇️

candc320 Cont‘d: friends with the boyfriend so goes to tell him about dangers to our female lead before speaking to her! In what world is this ok? Then I felt the ending was super rushed and anticlimactic, especially given how long this book is. I think this is the first book by this author I‘ve read and it might be my last. That being said, the portions dealing with the killer were actually interesting so who knows! 🌟🌟 (edited) 9mo

Another solid suspenseful story from Nora Roberts. I really appreciate her strong female characters. I also liked reading about a family that supports each other.

I actually had high hopes for this after reading the synopsis.But, turns out it was quite boring. Some scenes are too draggy. You want to love the characters but you can't. Characters are not exciting. There was no edge of the seat thrill.

Wow! I just devoured this book in a couple of days. It had a slow start for me but man did it pick up after the first 100 pages! I couldn‘t put it down and I stayed up way past my bedtime last night reading it. I‘ve not read very many of Nora Roberts‘ romantic suspense novels but I‘m definitely looking forward to catching up.

Okay, last review for now. This is Roberts's latest book, and I actually really enjoyed it a lot. It's not groundbreaking or trend-setting, but if you've enjoyed her other recent books, you'll probably like this one as well. It's romantic suspense light on the suspense, as it's really more about Morgan choosing to put her life back together after tragedy. I loved the way that reestablishing a relationship with her mom and grandma was such a ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) big part of the story (although I was way over her calling them “her ladies“). I totally shipped the romance as well, although I did find their initial falling into bed to be a bit abrupt. If you're looking for heart-racing page-turning, this is not the book to pick up. But if you're looking for an engaging romance with likable characters and a splash of suspense to keep things moving, this is one I recommend.

I received an ARC for Identity by Nora Roberts from NetGalley in exchange for a honest review. I am a big Nora Roberts fan, especially of her romantic suspense. Identity is trademark Nora - tough resilient heroine, stoic/grumpy hero, a truly psychotic villain. Morgan is our protagonist. She works two jobs, has a best friend/roommate, and not much of a social life.⬇️

Nessavamusic When she takes a chance and dates a patron of the bar where she bartends, her life spirals into terror and financial ruin. My favorite part of the story is Morgan, you can not help rooting for her. Her eventual love interest is fine, but not my favorite Nora hero. I really did enjoy this book, though it dragged in the middle. I think with some slight edits it would be a top Nora suspense romance. 4⭐️ 11mo

I‘ve always been a fan of Roberts, especially her JD Robb persona. But this romantic suspense was just too long. 450 pages may not sound lengthy, but the middle was slow and unnecessary in parts. A young woman saving up to own her own bar has her identity and dreams stolen and her bf murdered by a cyber thief/psychopath. Starting over she relocates to live with her mom and grandma, finds a great job, great guy and regains her strength and 🔻

robinb confidence because she knows he‘s coming for her as his only mistake in his murdering spree. It has the romance (though the male lead is annoyingly alpha), the suspense (mostly towards the end) and Roberts‘ signature blunt writing style (also annoying at times), but I just was not able to get into it as I usually do her books. Still, not a bad read overall. 3.5/5⭐️ 11mo
CoverToCoverGirl Love her JD Robb series but avoid her writing as herself. 🤷🏼‍♀️ 11mo
robinb @CoverToCoverGirl I‘ve always loved both, but lately her Roberts writing has seemed off for her. This is not the first recently that I haven‘t totally loved. I ❤️ Robb too! 😊👍 11mo
Octoberwoman I really struggled with this one. Probably my least favorite of her books so far. 11mo
robinb @Octoberwoman Glad it‘s not just me. Although I have read some other reviews that pointed out the things that bugged me. 11mo

It took me a month to read this. I didn‘t love it, didn‘t hate it, yet it was a slog to get through. Not much romance despite the romantic relationship, no real suspense until the very end. Not what I expected from Ms. Roberts.
