Book Review: Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six by Lisa Unger

Image
Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six by Lisa Unger opens with Hannah and her family celebrating Christmas with dinner. All the gifts have been opened, with the exception of some that are from Santa. However, no one is owning up to being Santa. Fast forward six months, Hannah, her husband, brother, sister-in-law, and her best friend with a boyfriend in tow are getting together for a long weekend where secrets are spilled. Wow! I have no words to describe how much I absolutely loved this Lisa Unger story. It kept my interest from the start of the book, and I would love to see it turned into a movie. Told from several characters perspectives and alternating timelines, it kept me guessing for the most part. Lisa Unger did a fantastic job of keeping it easy for the reader to follow without any issues. However, I did figure out the connection between Trina and Cat to the rest of the story relatively early on. With that being said, I didn't quite figure out the connection between Henry and the rest

Book Review: First Lie Wins by Ashley Elston

First Lie Wins by Ashley Elston is about a woman named Evie Porter that has everything a woman could want. But the catch is ... Evie Porter doesn't exist. Her identity and location comes first ... Evie Porter. The mark comes second ... Ryan Sumner. Lastly, the job. Evie only knows her boss by Mr. Smith, but after she failed miserably with her last job, Evie can't screw up the Ryan Sumner job if she wants to go leave this live behind and reclaim her true identity.

WOW . . . Ashley Elston weaved a fantastic story that had me on the edge of my seat the entire time I was reading First Lie Wins. It's so engaging that I couldn't wait to find out how it all was going to end. There were twists and turns galore that had me guessing the whole time. The author did wrap up the story line but ended in a way that there could be a sequel. I truly hope there's a sequel because I want more of this tale!!

One of the things I enjoyed the most about First Lie Wins is that it reminded me of the television show Alias. Another thing that is great is the author only gives you bits and pieces of Evie's past and as the story progresses, those bits and pieces come together to tie the story all together. I truly saw this story playing out in my head like a movie. Every time I had to put the book down and come back to reality, it took me some time to readjust to real life. It really did suck me in that much!

I honestly have nothing negative to say about First Lie Wins by Ashley Elston and give it five out of five stars. I can't wait to see what else this author writes and read it. I can honestly say that I will buy her next book without even reading the synopsis.
