Giveaway!! A book a day in the month of May!!! Day 23!!


We're getting nearer the end of the month and I still have so many great books to share! Today's book is a hardcover copy of The Girl She Used to Be by David Cristofano. You can read my review of this book HERE.

From Amazon

After 20 years in the Federal Witness Protection Program (WITSEC) and eight aliases, Melody Grace McCartney hardly knows who she is. On the run since she and her parents stumbled on a gruesome murder by mobster Tony Bovaro when she was six years old, Grace saw WITSEC’s promised protection fail her mother and father when they were killed 12 years later. Now she feigns personal danger to be relocated just because she’s bored and wants a change. But before her new case officer can move her from suburban Maryland to rural Wisconsin, Tony’s son, Jonathan, tracks her down to present an alternative: protection from his family and a life of more safety and freedom than she has ever known. While federal officials pressure her to stay in WITSEC and show her Jonathan’s violent side, her attraction to him grows, and she must decide a course for the rest of her life.


This is a very good debut novel, I think you'll all enjoy it!
