Unbecoming by Rebecca Scherm
4.0

Grace lied. Now the two men who know the truth are on parole. Despite re-inventing herself as Julie the antiques restorer, Grace knows time is ticking.

Alternating between Grace's past in Tennessee leading up to the big lie and her current life in Paris, this novel was a stunner. Crammed with evocative language and lush descriptions of antiques, art, and lust, I was swept away from the beginning.

Grace was such an intriguing female character; I felt empathy for her yet loathed her all at the same time. I don't want to give much away, but she is one of those girl's who is a chameleon. She's the girl you want her to be, no matter her true feelings, but how long can the facade last?

Unfortunately, I hated the ending, but the entire ride was so worth it.
