Actual Rating: 3.5
This was a great read. This series reminds me of The Naturals series by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. I thought the story was interesting and action-packed. I found the lopsided love triangle a bit weird. Violet loves Jay, but Rafe and Jay both love Violet. I do not know how this is going to turn out. Also, I still liked Violet. I think her abilities are really cool. However, I wondered why Jay was not in the story more. I hope he is in the last book more as it is the finale. I wonder how this series is going to end. It has been a great ride so far. Overall, an enjoyable read.

I read this book in a day and I thought it was good. Yeah I didn't really like the love triangle but it wasn't overpowering. I like the idea of the "superpowers" even though its finding dead bodies. It's the first book in a while that I thought it was that cookie cutter. The plot was more developed then the other two books and the character background was ok. I think the car accident was fluffy but it did show that she did have feelings for Rafe.
After reading the last the one I was hoping this would be the last book but with the end of this book I am excited to see where they take the series.
This was a pretty good third book. I like jay but I think violet would be better with Rafe. Hopefully there is another book because I really like violet and co.
Wholly Crap...can I say that here? But I got to admit that is exactly what came out of my mouth when I finished this book. I can not wait for the next one. I really can't.
Spoiler
Not one but two people after her. The imprint (I know it is a spoiler but I still don't want to give too much away) Jay...Rafe...The end. I am speechless.
I love this series like a chocaholic loves chocolate. That’s a terrible comparison, but it’s true. The suspense and the romance put together make it absolutely impossible to put down.
The Plot:
In this book (it’s the third in the series) Violet has begun working with Sara Priest’s team to help find killers with her gruesome ability. She finds dead bodies by a pull towards and a certain sensory feeling around them (a sound, smell, taste, etc.) These are what she calls echoes, and an identical imprint is left on the killer of the person (this is how she can track the killer, not just the bodies). Then comes our serial killer, the Girlfriend Collector who is absolutely beyond disturbing and he has got Violet in his sights. Of course we have Jay (the best part of the whole series haha) and Rafe, who Violet can’t but help feel a slight attraction towards (not okay).
The Characters:
Violet: The main character obviously has a fascinating and frightening ability to find the dead, but I think she has handled it well. Well, usually. She is brave and intelligent, qualities she is forced to use time and time again to get out of dangerous situations. I sometimes wish (like we all do) that characters don’t insist on keeping secrets from adults and people that could help . She makes me feel frustrated sometimes, but it’s okay because it is impossible not to root for her against impossible odds. She is awesome.
Jay: *Ahem*, where the heck do I start with this boy? He is caring, thoughtful, selfless, and so, so, so sexy. Really, the parts of the book that included him and Violet gave me shivers (of happiness, not the shivers you get from the creeper). He really is so perfect, always concerned about Violet, frustrated that he can’t help her, and so trusting. I almost wanted him to get up and punch Rafe across the face (he didn’t), but it’s okay. I still wish we had more of him in this book though, too much Rafe.
Rafe: Eh, I am sure some out there like him, but I will always be a die-hard Jay fan. Rafe saves Violet’s life a bunch of times, turns out he loves her (like we didn’t see that one coming), and you know, he has an ability like Violet’s. He is shrouded in mysteries and secrets which drives me nuts (why does he have to be so dang secretive?), but he’s a good guy, also willing to do anything for Violet.
The Collector: Umm can anyone say creepy? Like wow, is this guy messed up. The little snippets we get into his head just made me want to cower or soothe him (how crazy is that?) But he needs to be stopped no matter what and Violet is just the person to do it.
Sara Priest: Also very secretive (hint, hint), helps Violet find her place on the team. She’s a pretty kick-butt lady.
Vi’s friends and the Team: I love all of them. They are so funny and good supporting characters. I want more!
The Romance:
Oh my god. How can I get this point across? THE ROMANCE IS SMOULDERING. It’s undeniably awesome. The first two books are all her and Jay (which I loved, especially the first), while this one has some Rafe thrown I there (I am not ashamed to admit I don’t like him at all ). Anyway, the moments between Jay and Violet, and just how perfect they are together is amazing. This is one of those love triangles I know exactly who needs to win. I wish there was a Jay in real life. I would marry him (again not ashamed).
The Style:
Next to last, the style is amazing. Whenever she dunks us into the Collector’s head you feel completely there. And very, very scared. It’s so suspenseful and at times I almost fell off my chair (or I would have if I was sitting on one). It’s is (I repeat) impossible to put down and if you don’t want your day to flash by you or you have important things to do, wait to read it because you will forget everything.
Overall:
One of my favorite series ever, and I wish I could recommend it to everyone. Unfortunately, I know a lot of wussies who refuse to read it because it’s scary. So yeah, don’t read it if your bladder scares easily. But all in all, one of my favorite books and series’ ever. If you want to know why, see above review.

It is one of the most amazing books I've ever read. I really love Jay-Violet couple . They are perfect for each other but Rafe is great in his way too, so i think he deserves someone that loves him.
This was my favorite book in this series so far. It so many twists and turns and great characters. Violet stopped whining for the most and has started to grow up but she still manages to get herself into a ridiculous amount of trouble. My favorite part of this series is the storylines and morbid creepiness and the power that Violet has is awesome.
Violet starts working with Sara's crime fighting psychic team. She finally feels like she's doing something good with her powers. She feels more accepted and less like a freak. The only thing is she wishes she could help victims before they died instead of after like the others and nothing hits home with that more than a new case their working on with a stalker killer called the collector. On top of all of this is Rafe. She knows she has a weird connection with him and with Jay starting to feel jealous and left out its not a good time for it. The rest of the team starts telling her that Rafe has started to act different and open up a little since she got there only confusinf her more. (UGH I usually hate love triangles but this one was done subtly and was not the main point of the story so I actually enjoyed this one). Violet get into harms way and her loved ones as well as herself are starting to question if staying on the team is good for her.
I love the atmosphere of these books. They are creepy and morbid and fascinating from page one. I also loved that Violet has matured a little. She's stronger and more sure of her gift and now that she has others that understand her power she's not afraid to ask for help when needed. She wishes she could find the girls before they die and so she starts investigating and ends up getting into trouble that she might not survive. I love that Derting has those little teaser chapters from the killers POV. It makes the scenes with the killer all the more real and gives him a face and makes him so much more than just a faceless killer. They make the book more intense. To see into the mind of the killer and meet the victims before they even know they're victims.
I loved Sara's team in this book. We get to see how it all started and new and interesting powers from each of them. Krystal was awesome she is so exuberant and I just loved her personality. (Reminded me of my best friend through the whole book). And Rafe god I loved Rafe. He wormed his way into my heart even though I don't like love triangles still I'm hoping that they just stay friends. Jay is very understanding in this book about her working for the team and very open about being jealous of Rafe but giving her space to be his friend anyways he's so sweet and honestly him and Violet are perfect for each other.
Can't wait to read the next one!!!
