Book Spotlight Giveaway! Heartbroken by Lisa Unger


I have sooooo many books! I have a ton of print books and probably even more e-books. The Book Spotlight Giveaway feature that I post every Saturday is a way for me to clear my shelves and to share some of the many books I have. There are a lot of different reasons that I might be letting some of my books go, the biggest one is that when we moved a little over 2 years ago I discovered how many books I really do have. This feature is a way for my to cull my collection and to give someone else the opportunity to enjoy them.

****************************

The book I am featuring today is an ARC that I received from my daughter when she moved. I have not read any books by this author. Have you?

Good luck and be sure to stop back next week!

Heartbroken

Heartbroken by Lisa Unger
Print and ebook, 370 pages
Published June 26th 2012 by Crown

New York Daily News Top New Thriller Novel, Publishers Weekly Best New Books, and Suspense Magazine's Best Books of 2012

A shattering new thriller about three women on a heart-wrenching collision course.

Long after anyone expected Kate to do anything with her life, she did. Using the journals left behind by her aunt and grandmother, she wrote a novel based on a very real generation-old love story that ended in tragedy. On the other side of town, Emily is about to set fire to her life. She’s in a dead-end job and is involved with the wrong man; she can feel herself being drawn into darkness, with horrific consequences. With nowhere to go, she finds herself on the run.  Without knowing each other, and with lives that couldn't be more different, Kate and Emily head to the same point on the map: Heart Island, an idyllic place in the middle of a lake in the Adirondacks, owned for generations by Birdie Burke's family. The harsh and unyielding Birdie is at one with this island, which has a terrifying history all its own. She, too, has consequences to face.

Heartbroken is a tense, mesmerizing novel about the limits of dysfunctional families, of an island haunted by dark memories and restless ghosts, and of the all-too-real demons we must battle.  Wonderfully suspenseful, exquisitely crafted, and written with raw, emotional power, this is Lisa Unger at her very best.

  6. I have read many of Unger's books and enjoyed them all, especially Die for You, In the Blood, and Crazy Love You. Unger is a master of suspense, with fully fleshed-out characters and a firm command of story line, pacing, and time and place.
