REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK | #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“This fast-paced read has everything you could want in a thriller: secret identities, a mysterious boss and a cat & mouse game that kept me guessing the whole way through.” —Reese Witherspoon

Evie Porter has everything a nice Southern girl could want: a doting boyfriend, a house with a white picket fence, a tight group of friends. The only catch: Evie Porter doesn’t exist.


The identity comes first: Evie Porter. Once she’s given a name and location by her mysterious boss, Mr. Smith, she learns everything there is to know about the town and the people in it. Then the mark: Ryan Sumner. The last piece of the puzzle is the job.

Evie isn’t privy to Mr. Smith’s real identity, but she knows this job isn't like the others. Ryan has gotten under her skin, and she’s starting to envision a different sort of life for herself. But Evie can’t make any mistakes—especially after what happened last time.

Evie Porter must stay one step ahead of her past while making sure there's still a future in front of her. The stakes couldn't be higher—but then, Evie has always liked a challenge. . . .

    I picked up this book after dinner for a light read. It’s currently now 4:52am and I have work in 3hours—but I just could not put this book down. From the very first pages, it swept me off my feet and pulled me straight into the story. I haven’t read anything this captivating in a long time. A true attention-grabber and an easy, casual read!

    Persevering until about 85% of this novel was finished, I couldn’t take a minute more of my time wading through a confusing, boring book. I skipped to the last two chapters where I discovered how dismal the whole book turned out to be. The ‘’ love story ‘’ was flat.

    I am disappointed at the summary about this book because it revealed some of the twists that should’ve been unexpected..otherwise it’s a great fast paced book with the perfect amount of character development and the characters were likable.
