Desperate Acts by Alexandra Ivy

adventurous dark emotional mysterious reflective tense medium-paced

4.0

Desperate Acts by Alexandra Ivy is immersive, slow-burn and intriguing. A continuation of the established and enjoyable Pike series, it follows the journey of Lia & Kaden. Lia is an introvert who is a well-established businesswoman but keeps this under the radar, away from her nosy neighbours. She is still haunted by the distressing image of a run woman running and jumping. Kaden left Wisconsin for Hollywood and is content with his business in Las Vegas. However, when the skeletal remains are found, he finds himself back at Pike to seek justice on behalf of his later brother. This results in their paths crossing with the mutual aim of seeking the truth. I have been a massive fan of Alexandra Ivy, for she delivers the perfect mix of slow-burn romance and mystery. Desperate Acts certainly did not disappoint. This book is filled with suspense and enough twists and turns that will keep you guessing till the end. I was surprised by the ending and didn't see that coming.
I look forward to reading more books from this series.
