4.0 out of 5 stars Mirror Image, February 3, 2008

After a devastating plane crash, hospitalized Avery Daniels is misidentified as Carole Rutledge, the wife of Senatorial candidate Tate Rutledge. Due to severe trauma and injury, Avery is unable to communicate who she really is, and undergoes surgery transforming her into Carole Rutledge. When she learns that someone has targeted Tate, and plans to murder him, she decides to live Carole's life to protect Tate and his daughter.

I have always been a huge Sandra Brown fan, and can always count on excellent writing. This book did not disappoint. It is intense and emotionally gripping, and keeps you on the edge of your seat until the end.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heart wrenchingly HOT!!!!!, March 20, 2006

This review is from: Mirror Image (Mass Market Paperback)

Avery, a reporter ends up on the same flight as a senator's wife, and it crashes and burns. Avery is taken to the hospital and labelled his wife. She takes the responsibility of becoming the mother of his daughter while starting the greatest love affair meant between husband and wife. Meanwhile Tate, the senator, is a little suspicious of his "wife's" change in attitude. Their relationship develops on the steamy side, if not trustingly, but they just get stronger and start believing in one another again. It is such a heart wrenching tale, I could read it over and over again.

I first read this book before the new cover came out. It is still one of my favorites. If you liked this one, you will like Mary Alice Monroe's "Girl in the Mirror", and "Shades of Twilight" by Linda Howard.

5.0 out of 5 stars High Flying! (no pun intended :-), June 8, 2000

By 

Jessica (Central PA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mirror Image (Mass Market Paperback)

I have never read any other of Sandra Brown's books, but after reading Mirror Image, I plan to start ASAP! I loved this book from the second i read the first sentence, until the last word of the book. Avery's love for Mandy and Tate was endearing and so brave. I had 2 of the killers figured out, but the third one is the BIGGEST shocker! I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone, esp. if you want to get hooked on Sandra Brown's awesome writing technique. If you have a boring job where you have nothing really to do (which is what prompted me to read this one i found in my mom's desk drawer) this book will definately make you WANT to go to work!
