This was my first Nora Roberts book. I can see why so many people love her!
I really enjoyed Morgan's story. I love that this was a thriller/romance.
My only complaint is how slow the beginning of the book was and the length of the chapters.
Other than that it was a great read!
There is a reason she is yet again an auto buy author for me. I always love her suspense with a dash of romance . She knocked this one out of the park . Almost five stars I just wish there was a more prelude before they got together .
I liked the take this one took. She really did her research on how identity theft can really affect people and destroy their lives .
People are not always as they seem. I always like her strong women and how the men support and not bulldoze them..
Typical Nora Roberts. She keeps you on your toes and wants you to keep turning the pages. Nora does not disappoint with this book.
Having your identity stolen would be a nightmare in itself. Having everything of value ripped away is something beyond nightmarish. In IDENTITY, Nora Roberts introduces us to Morgan, who, after a fairly chaotic younger life, put a plan in place for the calm life she wanted, complete with financial spreadsheets. She has her house and a roommate she adores who is helping fix it up, but there is no time or plans for a boyfriend. When Luke starts visiting her bar regularly, she lets down her guard and starts to date him, only to come home one day to find her roommate dead and her car gone, and Luke no longer available. It isn’t long before she finds that she didn’t lose just her roommate, but her entire identity. Soon the FBI is at her door, and she realizes that she was Luke’s target and she’s the only one that can identify him, and it’s likely he isn’t finished with her. Feeling beaten, she heads to her Grandmother’s home, and reconnects with both her Grandmother and Mother, finding both women are stronger than she remembers, and being with them helps her start to heal. When she finds the perfect job at a family run resort, she starts to become stronger, learns how to fight back, and finds the man perfect for her.
Roberts has created another novel that will leave you on the edge of your seat, turning pages to watch Morgan as she fights to reclaim her life and her identity. I love watching her rediscover her family and find a new path, all the while knowing that her new life wasn’t secure until the man who took so much from her is caught. Roberts knows just how to write novels with a strong female protagonist that keep the reader in suspense until the very end. This one belongs in everyone’s beach bag!
Thanks to the publisher for the opportunity to read an advanced copy of the novel. All opinions are my own and freely given.

I enjoyed this book. It was a little longer page number wise, but it really went by so quickly - I found myself not wanting to stop reading. This is listed as mystery/thriller/romance which first initially intrigued me and I loved it. This book was completely captivating with the story building - the twists and turns, the overall well rounded characters and how relatable they became, overall had me rooting for Morgan throughout the story. Loved it!
I’ve been reading Nora Roberts books for many years and I always enjoy them. After reading the description for Identity, I was really looking forward to reading it.
Nora Roberts books have a bit of everything and it all seems to come together perfectly. Romance, sex, family, love, loss, redemption, thrills and more!
And Identity was no exception.
When Morgan Albright was a child her father was in the army. This meant frequent moves to different countries and continents. As an adult all Morgan wanted was to put down roots. She wanted her own home and her own business. So she worked her way through college and saved every penny. Now Morgan is twenty-five years old living her best life in her pretty little house with it’s pretty little blue door just outside of Baltimore, Maryland. Her best friend, Nina Ramos moves in to help share costs and this has also worked out extremely well.
“She’d planted those roots and felt herself blooming.”
Then Morgan meets a man who will change her life forever.
I really enjoyed this book!
At 437 pages it’s not a quick read. However, I was enjoying the story and really didn’t focus on the length.
Timely and relevant, Identity was an engrossing read. I grew to care for many of the characters, especially Morgan and “her ladies”. Even the animals in Nora Robert’s books are well developed. (I loved Howl the dog).
Another great novel from Nora Roberts!
I'd like to thank the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with a copy of this novel. All opinions are my own.
Seriously, I loved this book. I'm not surprised as I'm a huge fan of Nora Roberts, but this was once again a favorite of mine. It reminds me of the Angels Fall book she wrote. Psycho hurts and messes with the girl. Girl rebuilds her life and tries to find her happy ending. I highly recommend this book.
This was good in a chilling way. Almost too creepy for me but I persisted til the happy ending. Thank you to both NetGalley and the publisher.
Enjoyable novel by Nora Roberts with a nice mix of romance and mystery. Story flowed well, perfect for the beach!
Thank you Netgalley and St. Martin's Press for the ARC!
I could not put Identity by Nora Robert’s down! This book was so good- the suspense kept me on the edge of my seat. I also felt like the characters were quite realistic. Roberts is skilled in character development and setting. The plot and pace were perfectly timed! I never seem to get tired of reading Nora Roberts!
So, yes, I definitely recommend reading Identity if you love suspense and romance.
A well written story that will hold your interest from beginning to ending. Another great story from Nora Roberts.
Nora Roberts is the queen of romantic suspense for a reason! She continues her reign with this latest captivating story about a woman who can't seem to escape her past no matter how hard she tries. It was enjoyable and I truly couldn't put it down.
Thank you SMP and Netgalley for my copy.
Nora Roberta can do no wrong I my humble opinion. This book came here to serve and it did. I loved both the plot because not only it had me hooked but also was engaging enough, and also the main characters were kinda relatable. Overall, it was a full 5 stars read for me
Nora Roberts can literally do no wrong. She’s got a formula and it always works, ALWAYS!
Romance, suspense, thriller, and a splash of sexy time. It’s seriously got everything!
What can I say? Nora Roberts is hands down one of the best writers ever. I love her range. This one was so good.
Roberts is one of my favorite authors and I have read almost everything she has written. I absolutely loved this book, the story and the characters. This is an easy, enjoyable read. I literally could not put it down. I highly recommend this novel to any new and old readers of Nora Roberts.
Thank you to Netgalley and St. Martin's Press for this ARC of Identity by Nora Roberts.
I was excited to dive into this book based on the synopsis, and well known author.
I loved the first 10%-15% of the book - we get great character building, and suspense right away.
As the initial thrill wore off, I struggled to continue, but I did in order to provide a true opinion.
Some issues:
What I didn’t love -too much repetitive dialogue. I felt like the same scenes and conversations were repeated, without adding much value to the story.
While I loved the epilogue, I also didn’t find anything special about Morgan’s relationship with Miles. I didn’t really feel their romance.
Without giving too much away - my favorite parts were the pages involving Gavin. It’s almost as if the writing changes. It’s riveting, exciting, and well done.
Thank you to the author, publisher, and, NetGalley for the opportunity to provide an unbiased, honest review.
Thanks for NetGalley and Macmillan for an advance readers copy. It has been a while since I read. Nora Roberts book and she sure didn’t disappoint. Very fast paced and gripping novel. Thankfully I have the week off so I could read any chance I got! I did not want to put this down at all. The details and imagery were at the top of Nora’s writing. I wish I had read the synopsis of the book before I got past the dinner date with Nina and Sam because I definitely didn’t see it coming and wouldn’t have. I also want to try a lot of the drinks mentioned in the book! Now I am asking myself why I haven’t read a Nora Roberts book in awhile…
Well written and captivating story. The story follows Morgan Nash back to her hometown of Vermont while she is trying to rebuild her life after getting conned by “Luke” where he stole everything from her and murdered her best friend. While she is rebuilding her life this Like character is working on plotting his revenge since Morgan was the intended victim.
This book about an Identity Theft Serial Killer will have you sitting on the edge of your seat! It got pretty intense at times, but I couldn’t stop reading. I had to know what happened next. The author nailed the mentality of the psychopath following Morgan and gave me the creeps. I highly recommend this book to readers who like a good thriller!
Thank you, NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for the ARC in exchange for my honest review!
