After being released from the hospital, Lexi’s transferred to the Milwaukee County Jail, where she’s informed about her pending charges for first-degree murder.
Intent on proving she’s innocent, Lexi places a phone call to her stepsister asking for her help. As Lexi gets closer to the truth, she unravels ugly secrets about her dead mother that will change her life forever.
My Review:
Blindsided grabbed my attention from the first page and never let go from beginning to end. Once I picked it up I was hooked and I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough as I had to know what was going on. Blindsided kept me in suspense all the way through to the end.
Blindsided tells the story of one young woman’s life as she grew up and how she was treated. Blindsided is Lexi Archer’s story. It tells what she went through as a child with her mother. After the death of her mother, Lexi is sent to live with her aunt. Life does not get any easier for Lexi living with her aunt.
Living with her aunt opens Lexi’s eyes to a brand new world. She learns that everyone has lied to her, her whole life. She learns that the people in her life are not who they said they were.
Lexi’s life is turned upside down when she is arrested for murder and thrown in the county jail. Lexi doesn’t believe that she has killed anyone but she is certain as the details of that night are blurry.
Did Lexi commit murder? Did she do what they are accusing her of? Is Lexi innocent? If so who is the killer? All the answers can be found by reading Blindsided. Grab your copy of Blindsided today for all the answers.
Blindsided pulls you in from the very beginning, rooting for Lexi, making you feel for Lexi in more ways than one. Blindsided will touch your heart in different ways. Some are good and some are not so good. I can’t wait for the next book in The Forgotten Daughter series, Trapped due to be released July 5, 2023.
