<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"As I stepped off the elevator on the second floor, I found myself silently begging for a calamity. A fire, a flash flood, even a tiny earthquake would suffice. Anything that would give me a legitimate reason to evacuate the area immediately. Or, better yet, I wouldn't make it out in time and the somber voice of Brian Williams would detail my demise on the nightly news. "Cassie Woodson entered the Midtown office building on the first day of her new job mere seconds before the entire skyscraper was reduced to rubble by the powerful explosion.""--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b>A young woman's escalating obsession with a seemingly perfect man leads her down a dangerous path in this "delicious and marvelously controlled" (<i>The New York Times Book Review</i>) novel of suspense. <p/>"Bitingly modern and totally addictive, Lindsay Cameron's suspense debut is the freshest take on stalker fiction since <i>You</i>."--Andrea Bartz, </b> <b><i>New York Times</i> bestselling</b> <b>author of <i>We Were Never Here</i> <p/>NAMED ONE OF THE SEASON'S BEST READS BY <i>Oprah Daily</i> - <i>Parade</i> - <i>Entertainment Weekly</i> - <i>Travel + Leisure</i> - <i>PopSugar</i> - <i>New York Post</i> - <i>Frolic</i> - <i>Brit + Co</i> - <i>SheKnows</i> - <i>Create & Cultivate</i></b> <p/></b><i>Eyes aren't the windows to the soul. Emails are.<br></i><br>Cassie Woodson is adrift. After suffering an epic tumble down the corporate ladder, Cassie finds the only way she can pay her bills is to take a thankless temp job reviewing correspondence for a large-scale fraud suit. The daily drudgery amplifies all that her life is lacking--love, friends, stability--and leaves her with too much time on her hands, which she spends fixating on the mistakes that brought her to this point. <p/>While sorting through a relentless deluge of emails, something catches her eye: the tender (and totally private) exchanges between a partner at the firm, Forest Watts, and his enchanting wife, Annabelle. Cassie knows she shouldn't read them. But it's just one look. And once that door opens, she finds she can't look away. <p/>Every day, twenty floors below Forest's corner office, Cassie dissects their emails from her dingy workstation. A few clicks of her mouse and she can see every adoring word they write to each other. By peeking into their apparently perfect life, Cassie finds renewed purpose and happiness, reveling in their penchant for vintage wines, morning juice presses, and lavish dinner parties thrown in their stately Westchester home. There are no secrets from her. Or so she thinks. <p/>Her admiration quickly escalates into all-out mimicry, because she wants this life more than anything. Maybe if she plays make-believe long enough, it will become real for her. But when Cassie orchestrates a "chance" meeting with Forest in the real world and sees something that throws the state of his marriage into question, the fantasy she's been carefully cultivating shatters. Suddenly, she doesn't simply admire Annabelle--she wants to take her place. And she's armed with the tools to make that happen.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Fresh, fun, and totally wicked . . . a sharp, modern thrill ride with a witty heroine."<b>--<i>Entertainment Weekly</i></b> <p/>"Lindsay Cameron's thriller will appeal to fans of <i>You, </i> in that readers get a glimpse inside the head of someone willing to go to extreme lengths for what they want. . . .
