Today bestselling author of Somebody's Daughter, a chance
meeting with a woman in an airport sends a man on a pulse-pounding quest for the truth...

My Thoughts…
Oh David Bell,
you have an amazing talent with words.
From the very beginning, I was pulled in and couldn’t stop thinking about
the book until I read the very last page.
A man, Joshua, meets a woman, Morgan, in an airport. She has secrets, secrets that I couldn’t
even imagine, and is in hiding yet she is drawn to Josh and he can’t help but
follow her. This unravels an entire
past that Morgan is running from and Josh is trying to wrap his brain
around. With each conversation, more
information is given but even more is not told. The secrets pile up, the mystery gets
deeper, and the story gets better and better.
I really liked this story.
It starts with an everyday meeting and goes from there. Josh was an idiot sometimes; he follows a
woman he just met across the country while she just wants him to leave her
alone. He blows off his job and puts
his life in danger numerous times. I
liked that he stood his ground to his father (his boss), that he didn’t take
what Morgan said at face value, and that he asked questions even when he wasn’t
sure he wanted to know the answers.
There were many ways for this story to end, as a matter of fact
until the very end I was not sure which direction Josh and Morgan would
go. Some will like the end, some will
want a different ending but for me it was perfect.
