Rosie Lachlan, a heart transplant recipient, manages her family's Boston-area bridal shop and desperately wants to find "the one." She believed she had found love with Brad, but it was not to be. Through an anonymous service called DonorConnect, she is corresponding with the husband of her heart donor, a woman who died in an accident at home. After uncovering his identity, Rosie starts falling for Morgan, a thriller writer. While Rosie tries to learn more about Morgan, who she has become obsessed with, she finds online gossip about him and digs deeper into his life and marriage. Despite all the warning signs, Rosie pushes forward believing that she and Morgan are destined for one another. Will Rosie get her happily ever after, or is tragedy going to strike again?
I've read Megan Collins' last four novels, and she consistently delivers a highly suspenseful, effective thriller. Her latest nail-biter, Cross My Heart, features Rosie, a great character. She's kind, a hopeless romantic, and often misguided. Rosie sees life and relationships through "Rosie-colored glasses." It's no wonder she frustrates her friends and family, who all care deeply for her. Some creative plot twists will catch you off guard and keep you on edge.
