Liv and her best friend Morgan are in a
serious car accident and when Liv wakes up she is inside Morgan’s body. Liv’s own physical body is dead and Morgan is
gone as well, so Liv has to figure out how to be Morgan. Soon, Liv realizes that Morgan was keeping a
lot of dark secrets as she was trying to solve the mystery of her mother’s
death, so if Liv can’t keep ahead of the clues she doesn’t know what will
become of her new life.
I couldn’t put this
book down. At first it’s a little weird
that they traded bodies, but the author does a great job building this story. I enjoyed Liv, the mystery, and the romance. The content is a high swear count, heavy
make-out sessions that border on rated R content, drunk driving, suicide and a
creepy relationship between a young teen and an older man.
