Love Lies Beneath by Ellen Hopkins

3.0

Despite the author's popularity, this was the first book by Hopkins I have read. While I can't compare it to her young adult novels, as a novel for adults it is quite interesting. The story surrounds a three-time divorcee who begins a relationship with a doctor she meets after a skiing accident. While that sounds like the beginning of a romance novel, this character is far more complex than the typical romance heroine- and perhaps damaged in very different ways than the typical heroine. The need to find out the secrets of the characters will keep readers going. For readers who are sick of passive, likable women in fiction. Advance reading copy provided by Edelweiss.
