The Pretender by Ta'mara Hanscom

Set in South Dakota in 1975, where eighteen-year-olds could order 3.2 beer in a bar, and loaded guns were kept under the counter.

Frankie Valli sang "My Eyes Adored You," and American soldiers returning from Vietnam struggled with their new reality.

It's within this tumultuous season of American history that Tillie Caselli meets Noah Hansen, and they are never the same again. Their lives were mysteriously intertwined-and had been for many years-yet they had no idea. 

From the moment they met, Tillie and Noah wanted to spend the rest of their lives together, but a deliberate omission will keep them apart---and that same omission will be responsible for the escape of a murderer, and a bride's deception.

Here is what I thought.......

I have really enjoyed reading this book. I really like the setting and the time period it is set in. It is a bit confusing at first because the author introduces several characters at a time, but after a while I was able to sort everyone out and enjoy the storyline. I really enjoyed all of the characters in the book. Each one added something different to the story. I did however get frustrated with Tillie because of some of her choices, but I guess that means the author writes a good story because I got way to involved Ha Ha! I can't wait to read the rest of this series! Trust me when I say to go ahead and buy all of the books in this series. You will want to keep reading and reading to find out the rest of the story. I highly recommend this book. I received this book from LitFuse and the author for free. A positive review was not required. All opinions are my own.
