My Review
Bonnie is on the run from her past. She knows that it will soon catch up with her if she continues to live in San Diego, so she heads to the bus station and catches the first bus to...well, wherever the first bus is going. Bonnie winds up in Omaha, Nebraska, where she tries to start life all over again with a new job, apartment, and even a new name. She knows that eventually her prior life will catch up with her, but for now she's hoping to outrun it. She has a few relationships, but they don't turn out to be anything great. But when she meets Glen, a GI, she thinks that she'll never have to worry about her past again. But will their new life be as perfect as she wants it to be? And just what does Bonnie keep in the red box that she wants to keep a secret?
I enjoyed the plot of this book. I loved how even the reader doesn't end up knowing Bonnie's secret until the very end of the book. I liked seeing the way Bonnie changes from a very selfish individual to someone that cares about others. I felt sorry for Bonnie in the end of the book, but I did like the positive way that it ended. There were some swear words, nothing R rated, but it's definitely a grown up book.Labels: Vickie Hall
