Review: Whoever You Are by Donna Marie Lanheady

What defines you… 

Are you defined by your family, your career, your accomplishments? What happens when something you think defines you changes?

Emily McGinn, a recurring character from WHERE SECRETS LIE, believes she knows exactly who she is and where she belongs in the world, until she receives an inheritance from an unknown benefactor. Uncovering the source of the inheritance leads Emily to discover buried truths undermining what she thought was a straightforward life. As the truths alter Emily’s perception of the people closest to her, her perception of herself shifts as well. 

Set in the unique foothills community of Boulder, Colorado and its environs, WHOEVER YOU ARE questions not only how we define ourselves, but also how we define family and whether we bear any responsibility for the actions of those who came before us.

Whoever You Are by Donna Marie Lanheady

What do you do when you find out everything your life was based on is a lie, how would handle things?  The author does a great job of drawing us into this story and feeling for the characters, what they go through.  We root for Emily to get through this troublesome time in her life; we want her to come out on top.  The description of the scenery in this novel is superb and vivid.  I would recommend this book.  I give it 3 stars.
