Beautiful Lies by Lisa Unger

Published in 2006, Unger writes a sad, compelling tale of Ridley Jones, who discovers that her safe, insulated life is anything but. When she dashes in front of a truck to rescue a toddler, the publicity results in unwanted attention. Then she receives a note enclosed with a faded newspaper article that suggests she is not who she thinks she is. I had read this before, but when I picked it up again, I couldn't recall what it was about. An intense read, written in the first person. Certainly not boring. Sandy P
