In Another Life: Review

From Goodreads:
What would you do if your whole life was a lie and learning the truth could cost you your life? 

From New York Times bestselling author of the Shadow Falls series comes C. C. Hunter's new YA thriller about a girl who learns that she may have been kidnapped as a child, and must race to uncover the truth about her past before she winds up a victim.

Chloe was three years old when she became Chloe Holden, but her adoption didn't scar her, and she's had a great life. Now, fourteen years later, her loving parents' marriage has fallen apart and her mom has moved them to Joyful, Texas. Starting twelfth grade as the new kid at school, everything Chloe loved about her life is gone. And feelings of déjà vu from her early childhood start haunting her.

When Chloe meets Cash Colton she feels drawn to him, as though they're kindred spirits. Until Cash tells her the real reason he sought her out: Chloe looks exactly like the daughter his foster parents lost years ago, and he's determined to figure out the truth.

As Chloe and Cash delve deeper into her adoption, the more things don't add up, and the more strange things start happening. Why is Chloe's adoption a secret that people would kill for?

My Review:
This book was so great to read! I really enjoyed the characters, and the idea of a girl being kidnapped, and then meeting the boy that her parents are fostering, yeah, that's pretty interesting to read! Plus pretty emotional!

Chloe has had a tough time recently, her dad's had a midlife crisis and divorced her mom. Her mom had cancer, and only now is recovering, but is dealing with some mental issues. And on top of that, the divorce meant that she moved, and is starting her senior year at a new school. Not fun. And then she meets Cash and the possibility that she was kidnapped is brought up. Yeah.

Cash has had it tough, too. His mom left when he was young, and his dad was a con artist, and made his son participate. He doesn't let people close, including his foster family. Chloe's potential biological parents. But he wants to protect them from any hurt that might be caused by Chloe maybe, maybe not being their daughter. He's a good guy, but he has his flaws!

Really enjoyed the mystery, it was like, one step forward, two steps back, there would be a clue that would point one way, but then something else would come up that would make them believe otherwise.But that ending was pretty unexpected, and really great to read!

Yeah, this was a really great book and I enjoyed reading it!
