For Alex, her life was the writing, not everything else, and the reward was finishing the last page ... Alex has always battened down the hatches when times got tough, never opening herself up, turning to books instead. Having read voraciously from a young age, she's always wanted to be a writer. While she's studying in Boston, barely into her twenties, she lands her big break and her book is bought by a major New York publisher - it's all she ever dreamed of. But there's more to Alex than meets the eye... Alex writes under the pen name of Alexander Green, and she lives a double life. In the real world, Alex is overcoming tragedy and trying to find her way in the world. All the while she's struggling to hide her identity, having assumed the persona of a reclusive British writer. If her identity is revealed, it could shatter the life she's created. As Alex emerges as beautiful and confident young woman, others around her begin wonder what it is she's hiding? Can she keep her secret and travel the world inconspicuously? And will Alex ever find a place in her heart to let someone in?
