Chloe Holden knows she was adopted at the age of three. Her adoptive parents have never treated her any less than their own flesh and blood. Her parents have fallen apart and are getting divorced, leaving Chloe in the position she doesn't want to be in. She ends up having to move with her mother.  She has to start over. While some people might think she is being dramatic, she is honestly doing well with everything going on on her life. If that wasn't enough, she is lead to believe she could possibly be the little girl that was abducted from the very town she and her mother have moved back to. During her first moments in the town she is going to call home, she meets a mysterious boy named Cash. The little girl that was abducted at the age of three? It was Cash's foster parents' daughter and he thinks Chloe is her. He even has pictures that correlate the two girls--all the way down to a cat in a picture. Cash i a tormented soul trying to make up for the life he had with his biological father.

Anyone that knows me, knows that C.C. Hunter is my favorite author of all times. Her writing isn't perfect, but would it be realistic if it was? I own every single book by her. This might sound biased of me to say In Another Life was a magnificent book, but I'm going to tell you why it isn't biased of me.

C.C. Hunter has a thing for spunky, fun, and charismatic leading characters. Chloe is no different. She has a certain vibe that just catches you. Just like any other book by Hunter, the story line hooks you and drags you in.

Chloe has just moved away from the life she knew with her mother. While they both are mad at Chloe's father, Chloe's mom has a deeper resentment towards her now-ex-husband. Right away in the story we are introduced to a character that would become one of the main characters.

Cash is a character you kind of wish you could slap at first. At first he is so mysterious and no one knows why he has this...opposition towards Chloe. Every page he is involved with creates a more complex character. He isn't a flat character by any mean.

There are so many realistic points that are brushed up on. The hurt of dealing with cancer, and the resentment. Teenagers mad at the world and completely moody and broody. Developing new relationships and starting over. It also brushes on an adoption based mystery.

This book was so captivating, I read it in one sitting. There are so many mysteries in this story.

Verdict: I recommend this book.
