Girl In The Rearview Mirror by Kelsey Rae Dimberg


The title intrigued me from the start.  Does it mean not looking back? Does it mean looking the other way?  Does it mean keeping your secrets and your past hidden?

We meet Finn whose real name is Natalie, but she doesn't tell anyone because she wants to hide her past.

Finn left her home and moved to Arizona, worked in the office of a Senator's son, and then became the nanny for his four-year-old daughter.

Everyone seemed to have secrets, told lies, were manipulative, and users. Some of the characters were also odd but most were selfish.

GIRL IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR dragged a bit at first, and the story line was difficult to get straight, but the writing and the underlying hints about what was really going on kept me reading as the author has us mingling with the upper crust.

The chapters will keep your interest because of the author's skill of inserting subtle facts throughout the chapters and as the chapters end.

The story line increased in intensity and twists and kept me rapidly turning the pages to find out what really was going on, what really was happening, who could be trusted, and who was lying.

If you enjoy personal and family drama, seeing how the upper crust lives, and what lengths people go to in order to keep something hidden, GIRL IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR, will be something to add to your reading list.  4/5

This book was given to me as an ARC by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

    A book I'll be sure to file away for future reference.

    One of those readers who once they've started a book have to finish it. At the moment I'm struggling with books that don't grab my attention from the off but like you a lot of bloggers seem to have enjoyed this once they have got into it.

      You have to give it a few pages. :)

      The ending was worth the wait.

      Thanks for commenting, Tracy.
