Product Description

A New York Times bestseller!

Steven Ashton, a billionaire from New York, and Emily Grant, on the run from the law...and when they meet he can’t help falling for her. What he doesn’t know is that interfering in her life will put his own life in danger.

When billionaire Steven Ashton couldn’t stand his high society social life anymore, he left the stress of New York on a vacation for his soul. The need to meet real down to earth people led him to a small Nebraska town. He didn’t want to lie about who he was, but he couldn’t exactly tell them the truth.

Emily could have easily fallen in love with Steven, under different circumstances, but her past was catching up with her and she needed a new life. If the authorities found out about her, she could lose the one thing that meant everything, her four year old son.

Not What She Seems is approximately 67,000 words long.

This book is a "sweet" romantic suspense, appropriate for all ages.

Also by Victorine: The Overtaking - Book One of The Overtaking Series. (YA Romance)

This author has come up with a really good story and the writing at the beginning has been worked on a lot. Trouble is the rest of the book hasn't been
The love story between the 2 main characters is very poorly written. These 2 characters are also very wooden.
Some parts of the book contradict themselves, some just don't make sense. It is written quite lazily. As if a deadline was looming and it just needed to get finished on time regardless of the content
I was after a holiday read and although not a book I would ever recommend it does tick a few of the boxes for a holiday read - easy to read, keeps moving and you don't have to concentrate on it at all
The story really does deserve better. It could have been a good book if you took out the love interest and gave it to another author to write
Glad I didn't pay more than I did for it

Emily believes that she killed her husband, William. Steven Ashton, a billionaire, tries to escape from his high society life by travelling incognito to Nebraska. Emily and her son, Connor live with Richard, an obnoxious High school friend who controls Emily with the belief that she is wanted for murder.

Richard cooks up a plan for Emily to gouge money from Steven Ashton, now called Ethan. Emily half heartedly complies with this, but feels guilty.

Ethan and Emily start to date. Connor is always present, but they do manage to snatch a few romantic moments together.

I cannot reveal too much of the story. Author, Victorine Lieske, smoothly provides several well thought out suspects for William's murder as well as solid eplanations for everything that happens. The story did have many twists and turns leading to a surprise ending.

The plot for the novel was carefully constructed with a satisfactory climax leaving no loose ends. I felt this was a very strong beginning for a first time author, and am waiting, with impatience, for the next novel. I think this author demonstrates a lot of potential

Suspense Drew Me In 21 Nov 2010
Format:Kindle Edition
From the moment Steven Ashton runs across Emily Grant in the hallway of a motel, you know they are going to meet again. And they do. Steven is a billionaire who wants to get lost for a while. Emily is on the run with her small son and a man who has manipulated her into thinking he is her savior. Emily has a secret. For her son's sake she has kept running. Eventually her past begins to catch up with her. As the attraction grows between her and Steven, she finds it more and more difficult to keep running. At the same time, Steven begins to realize that things he knows about Emily don't add up, but he can't help himself from falling for her. With Steven's help, Emily returns to her home town to straighten out her life. An old mystery is brought to light and eventually solved, but not before Emily and Steven are nearly killed by someone who is mentally unbalanced.

Well-drawn characters, suspense, and the romance between the two main characters kept me reading past bedtime. Nicely done. I would like to read more from this author.
