The plot is thickening. Appreciating the criminology of it, as well as the complexities it brings to the relationship. I'm glad it's not just torturing bad guys or 'a hot guy and girl who have lots of sex because they find each other hot.' However, I'm still finding the relationship a bit possessive and lacking in substance outside of wanting to protect one another and finding each other attractive. I hope there's opportunity for them to actually know each other a bit more, and it looks like it's opening up that possibility.
Good cliffhanger.

what the hell is this roller-coaster. 

this book has the perfect pace for my taste. it's the best mix of everything I want. Gory Murder Stuff, the criminal minds kind of FBI stuff and a backstory that keeps me hooked.

I don't like the very much present clingy love trope. The jealousy doesn't really match and scince the book and the plot focuses so much on the Police and the Cases, Profiling and Stuff, the love story just kind of seems displaced? The heavy Sex scenes with sperm splattering everywhere it's kind of weird. but I can oversee that tbh. it's better than part one in my opinion.

*NO SPOILERS* 
This book has a iron grip on me although it is not for the lighthearted. It is dark and morals are tested but it is an amazingly written and has a very powerful and strong message. There is a strong female lead and an interesting twist.
