Synopsis:
New
York Times bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones’s
heart-pounding thriller of a woman’s secrets—and a past that’s about to come
out of hiding…
As an FBI profiler, it’s Lilah Love’s job to think like a killer. And she is very good at her job. When a series of murders surface—the victims all stripped naked and shot in the head—Lilah’s instincts tell her it’s the work of an assassin, not a serial killer. But when the case takes her back to her hometown in the Hamptons and a mysterious but unmistakable connection to her own life, all her assumptions are shaken to the core.
Thrust into a troubled past she’s tried to shut the door on, Lilah’s back in the town where her father is mayor, her brother is police chief, and she has an intimate history with the local crime lord’s son, Kane Mendez. The two share a devastating secret, and only Kane understands Lilah’s own darkest impulses. As more corpses surface, so does a series of anonymous notes to Lilah, threatening to expose her. Is the killer someone in her own circle? And is she the next target?

Lilah
Love is a profiler with the FBI. She has a knack for getting inside the head of
a killer. But when a body turns up bearing the same tattoo of an attacker from
her past, memories start to flood her and she finds herself back home in the
Hamptons. To the one person place she never wanted to go back to.
Kane
Mendez is no stranger to secrets. As head of the Menendez family cartel he
knows a thing or two about getting things done quietly and effectively. He also
knows a thing or two about Lilah Love since they dated until she decided to
leave town a couple of years ago.
Lilah
comes back into town with murder on her mind and the plan to stay as far away
from Kane as possible. She needs to find out who is killing these people ASAP.
When she starts to receive taunting notes however, she realizes she has very few people
she can actually trust.
Lilah and
Kane are opposites in some ways and similar in others. They're not exactly on
the same side of the law and yet they work very well together. I love the push
and pull of their relationship. Their attraction/chemistry to each other, even
though it simmers just below the surface at first, is undeniable. Lilah has a
badge, yet Kane has connections everywhere and can help her get further in her
investigation. But can she trust him? Lilah soon discovers that one thing's for
sure; in the Hamptons, nothing is black and white and everyone seems to have a
secret.
Fair warning...
This book ends with a cliffhanger, but luckily the second book, Murder Girl is already out so you can
pick up right where you left off.
RATING: 4 out of 5.
