Tangled Lives
THE NIGHTMARE BEGAN AFTER SHE WOKE UP...
Meg Howell opens her eyes to find herself surrounded by strangers. She has no idea how she ended up in a hospital in Salt Lake City. Or why everybody is calling her Lisa and insisting she's the wife of wealthy businessman Victor Cantalini. Victor seems to be playing right along with them. He has photographs of his wife, and even Meg has to admit the pictures are of her.
Nobody believes Meg's story--that she's a waitress from Las Vegas. Especially after the doctor calls the number Meg gives her, and speaks to a waitress named ... Meg Howell.
But Meg knows she's not Lisa. As she searches desperately through Lisa's life, she is propelled dangerously close to a shattering secret. Can she prove that she's being forced to live another woman's life--before she's forced to die that woman's death?

I'm mixed. The story is good, the ideas are clear, etc. But the characters are all unbearable, Meg too perfect, Lisa unbearable and egocentric as possible. Men are all big sexual freaks and perverts, considering women as objects who only count for their looks and their sensuality. Unfortunately some men are like that but fortunately not the majority and it is not felt in the book. The book is also full of clichés, the tomboy who plays baseball, the old man who marries a woman 30 years younger, the sexy and relaxed "cowboy"... I find that the ending is a bit shoddy and vague but we can understand the idea.

interesting story but too predictable….

Very interesting storyline, but the bad guys were kind of obvious, which made the heroine seem kind of stupid, which was annoying. An enjoyable read though, and lacking the explicit sex scenes so common these days, which was nice.

I randomly picked up this book from a bookstore.
I thought it won't interested me a bit. But I was very wrong!
