Her Name Was Rose by Claire Allan

Her Name Was Rose by Claire Allan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Her name was Rose. You watched her die. And her death has created a vacancy.

When Emily lets a stranger step out in front of her, she never imagines that split second will change her life. But after Emily watches a car plough into the young mother – killing her instantly – she finds herself unable to move on.

And then she makes a decision she can never take back.

Because Rose had everything Emily had ever dreamed of. A beautiful, loving family, a great job and a stunning home. And now Rose’s husband misses his wife, and their son needs a mother. Why couldn’t Emily fill that space?

But as Emily is about to discover, no one’s life is perfect … and not everything is as it seems.

When I first picked up this book I thought that it was a young adult title as the cover gave me that impression, this didn't matter, however I went into it with completely different ideas about it.

Emily witnesses an accident, one which she believes should have been her and becomes obsessed with this woman's life. She begins to stalk her online and take over the presence as she believes she had the 'perfect' life and wants that life for herself.

I really enjoyed this novel, it took me on a journey of which I was thrown in all directions, not sure who to believe or trust. It was such a quick read, one that I didn't want to put down, racing through the pages to get to the end.

I was really impressed with this book and would recommend it to anyone who loves a thriller.

I would like to thank the publisher for sending this in exchange for an honest review.
