No One to Trust (Hidden Identity Book #1): A Novel Kindle Edition

Summer Abernathy wakes up one morning to find her husband missing, three men in her home intent on finding him, and the life she's been living based on a lie. Which Kyle Abernathy did she marry? The computer programmer she met in line at the bank? Or the one who was apparently using that image as a cover story?

The search for her husband--and answers--takes Summer ever deeper into a world of organized crime where people are used one moment and discarded the next. And with her deepest relationship of trust already shattered, Summer doesn't know who to believe.

Always thrilling, Lynette Eason outdoes herself in this taut, breakneck story of lies, loyalties, and love that will have readers up all night to discover the truth hidden in the shadows.

Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

*Starred Review* Kyle Abernathy comes to work unexpectedly, only to see his partner in their office with the body of a man he has just killed. Because the risk of revealing his discovery is too great, Kyle is forced to bide his time and live with the fact that Sam is a murderer. A few months later, however, while Kyle is on a business trip, three men break into his house and threaten his wife, Summer. They want to know where Kyle is, although they refer to him as David Hackett. Suddenly, Summer has no idea who her husband is. Computer technician or criminal? Loving husband or complete stranger? In a world of lies, lies, and more lies, the truth is as elusive as a breeze. Eason is the author of the popular Deadly Reunion series (When the Smoke Clears, 2012; When a Heart Stops, 2012; When a Secret Kills, 2013), and readers who like such authors as Dee Henderson and Shirlee McCoy will also enjoy Eason’s thrilling, faith-based suspense novel. --Shelley Mosley

Review

"Eason begins an exciting new series with action and thrilling chase scenes...The conclusion is excellent, and mystery lovers will enjoy this suspenseful novel."

This book has twists and turns like you wouldn’t believe. The title is incredibly accurate considering the amount of people who had revelations as the book went on. It was beautiful to see faith in action and forgiveness so well displayed. And that line about God using ugly things to bring about beautiful results still has me tearing up.

5.0 out of 5 stars Trust Me, It's a Great Book!
Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2014

I've been a fan of Lynette Eason for a while, but No One to Trust is her best book so far. The action starts on the first page and doesn't let up until the very end. Even in suspense books, there's usually a spot in the book where I can put it down to do other things...like sleep, but not in this one. I had to stay up until 3 a.m. to finish.

When Summer is accosted in her own home by men searching for her husband, she's thrown into a tailspin of lies, cover-ups, and the mob. Summer has to decide if her husband, who is not who he said he was, can be trusted with keeping her safe from the men who will stop at nothing to get what they want.

Summer's journey to justice and truth is a tangled one where the lines get blurred and the truth is hard to find, and it is fantastic. The twists and turns are continuous, some are expected and others caught me by surprise. Some books have so much action that the character development suffers, but Eason balances Summer and her husband Kyle's relationship with God and each other with the action with ease.

Lynette Eason is off to another winning series with this first book. Fans of Christian romantic suspense don't want to miss this one!

Summer Abernathy is rudely awakened by a man with a gun looking for her husband who he tells her is not who she thinks he is. She doesn't want to believe the man because Kyle promised he'd never lie to her...... However, Kyle is really David Hackett who is in witness protection until he can testify against his former best friend and business partner. Kyle/David saw him murder a man. He has also been working as an informant to the FBI concerning some shady business practices he had discovered his partner involved in.

Summer is forced to go with David and his US marshal handler to protect herself. The book is the story of Summer and David's journey through guilt, anger, betrayal, distrust, and finally forgiveness and reconciliation. All those heavy emotions are played out against a background of running from some serious bad guys.

You will root for Summer and David to make it though all that is happening to them so they can work on their future together. Lynette doesn't disappoint--this book is packed full and will pull you in before the end of chapter one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Authentic Characters - Exciting Plot
Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2014

What an well-crafted story. I'm truly in awe of Lynette Eason's talent! This plot never let me go.

The heroine, Summer, as an attorney focused on helping battered women and their children, is a NURTURER. She has the type of personality who will insists on helping and has trouble being out of the loop. Her husband is a WARRIOR, loyal and used to being in motion for a good cause. Yet he has been forced into a benign life. Well, until page 1!

While the two mains dealt with active character arcs, Eason didn't leave out a grand supporting cast, some of them with personal growth as well. I have to say my favorite character was the antagonist. So evil, and yet had such a tenderness toward his pets. The man truly doted on them, and he needed them to keep him calm. Really, it was creepy, but made the character so layered.

The plot blended perfectly. Not only with the hero and heroine, but the six or so other contributing characters that made the story work. Complicated, yet not contrived. With the perfect balance of reason and logic to make the novel flow with authenticity.

If you’re looking for gripping suspense and an adrenaline pumping thrill ride, this book is for you!!
Right from the start this one grabbed hold and wouldn’t let go.
What would you do if you found out your husband wasn’t who he said he was?
I love the thread of forgiveness that runs through this book as Summer struggles with the pull of love and faith against her feelings of betrayal.
She isn’t perfect, and neither is her husband. Thats what makes them relatable, as they go through the same things we do, but in much more terrifying circumstances.
As they run for their life, will their trials bind them together or tear them apart?
I loved this book. Another winner!

So I read this book with my church Women’s Ministry. It was truly a treat to read a non-paranormal book and enjoy it. Anyone that knows me knows mysteries/thrillers have to grab my attention from the beginning. Lynette Eason did a wonderful job in keeping the reading engaged. That was the strongest point in this story. The story was always moving and every engulfing for chapter one. Summer and Kyle/David were never safe despite Kyle/David’s 360 in life. The faith angle was not too much or placed in a cheesy manner. The author shows you in the story that their safety and success is getting out of danger in solely dependent on God. Without giving too much anyway, there is no way but with the Lord; that is the message for me throughout the story and I liked that.
The character development of Summer and Kyle/David is very interesting and at sometimes frustrating. Summer struggles with forgiveness and acceptance the entire story and it makes the reader feel bogged down. Reading though her emotions at times makes me what to pull Summer out shake her. Kyle/David works through his regret for his actions pretty well, but his continued deceptions make the reader what to jump in the pages and punish the husband. But then given the themes of forgiveness and redemption slow you down and make you; the reader, prayer for forgiveness.
Overall I truly enjoyed the book. The story is compelling, interesting, and overall a great mystery ride. I have already order book two. Great job Lynette Eason.

For those (like me!) who enjoy a 3 to 1 ratio of suspense with romance, No One To Trust nails it!
Fast-paced, nail-biting action & suspense, and the intriguing element of discovering that your husband is NOT who you think he is. Yup. I was hooked!
