Varietats: Her Name Was Rose by Claire Allan

When Emily lets a stranger step out in front of her, she never imagines that split second will change her life. But after Emily watches a car plough into the young mother – killing her instantly – she finds herself unable to move on. And then she makes a decision she can never take back.

This will be a twisted story, because you don't feel connected with the main character Emily, she is one of those people that think that deserve more without trying to change, that's why when an accident happens in front of her she will start becoming obsessed with the victim, Rose.

Rose seems to have the perfect life; but as I am sure you know, perfect doesn't exist, so Emily will try to refill the space that Rose has left in her life, no matter at which cost. During the process she will not only discover Rose's secrets and problems but starting to discover herself and her own faults. She needs a change in her life, but maybe this one will be too drastic...

This had been a slow paced story, but full of surprises and emotional situations, and making the reader to never know who to really trust. Sometimes reading a book makes you change the point of view of your life, your values and your relation with your loved ones, this had been a great read and a way to make us remember that we are the only ones that we have the power to change the course of our lives, only us.
