I received this book through Goodreads first reads. So glad I did. This book was impossible to put down. It keeps you guessing right to the end. I've never read a Sandra Brown book I didn't enjoy, but this is probably one of my favorites.

Loved this book! Alex... Oof. I read the first, second, and third chapters, and thought that Alex was the person who . >.> For some background, I opened up the book to a random page when I bought it, to attempt to decide whether I should find a different book, or get that one, and just kept reading from there. xD About 3/4 of the way through, I started from the beginning again. By that point, I knew that . ;.; He was my favorite character... :) His and Cat's meeting was great! xD

Not sure why I feel this way but stories with bad language and sex scenes written by a women always throw me off and I don't like them. I shouldn't be surprised I know this authors stories can be that way bur it bugs me for some reason.
I like the premise of the story. It was intriguing and it seemed like a good story. I guess it is more my prejudice / preference that made me not want to finish. I did finish the story, but finishing it wasn't as satisfying as it normally is when I finish a story. If you are not into bad language or sexual scenes probably shouldn't read this.

Suspenso de principio a fin!! Se nota que es un libro escrito en los noventa... hay cosas que ya hoy en día no se ven tal cual en las novelas románticas pero eso es lo divertido de leer novelas que esos años.
Sandra Brown es una maestra para crear suspenso y despistar sobre la identidad del verdadero asesino; ésta no es la excepción!
La famosa actriz Cat Delaney está en la UTI muriendo hasta que recibe la mejor noticia de su vida: hay un donante del corazón que tanto necesita. Su vida da un vuelco completo luego del trasplante y decide dejar su vida en Los Ángeles para mudarse a Texas y ayudar a niños como ella.
El hecho que Cat se mude no significa que deja el peligro atrás, cada año para el aniversario de su transplante; personas transplantadas, como ella, mueren de formas inusuales pero consideradas accidentes. Cuando cartas y recortes amenazadores llegan a su puerta todo se vuelve personal y Cat sabe que el próximo aniversario es muy probable que sea su último.
Quien también aparece en la vida de Cat es Alex Pierce; un ex-policía, que ahora escribe novelas de misterio, parece ser la persona perfecta para desentrañar el misterio y descubrir a la persona detrás de las amenazas pero Alex tiene sus propios secretos y motivos ocultos detrás de su cercanía a Cat y su interés por los transplantes cardíacos.
Es una muy buena novela, con mucha parte médica pero nada sofisticado, muchos personajes que se unen a la red de la historia principal y la hacen imposible de dejar.
Mi único problema y el motivo de una estrella menos:
Spoiler
es Alex. Lo adoro como personaje y como galán de la historia pero me desilusionó un poco el verdadero motivo de su acercamiento a Cat. Su idea de recuperar a Amanda, su ex esposa muerta y donadora lo ciega y hace todo lo posible por saber el destino del corazón de ella.Es comprensible que Cat se sienta traicionada cuando descubre toda la verdad, pero aparentemente los sentimientos de Alex son genuinos y fin de la historia. Es un poco rápido ese final y tal vez un poco agridulce para mi.
Bonus de la historia es que al final Alex sí descubre al verdadero receptor del corazón de Amanda.
Muy buena historia de suspenso para agregar a las lecturas recomendadas.

This was a re-read, I wasn't feeling it this time, I skimmed a lot, not out of remembering but it seemed to have too much unnecessary details.
It's not the best Sandra Brown work but it was still worth a read.
Although it was slow in the middle, she managed to weave an interesting story and the ending was intriguing and suprising alghough I had a hint of who the villain was.
