This book starts off with a bang. A gunshot that is! Many gunshots to be exact. Ms. Drake brings us to a beautiful cabin in the woods, and then bam, she wrecks havoc on our hearts! This is where the story begins...



As you read, you will think you have it all figured out...you don't, trust me you don't. Spencer is recovering from a break up and has decided to go live in her parents cabin in the woods. So many memories both good and bad but she needs to get away and the cabin is the best place for her to find herself again.



At one point, Spencer was on top of the world, she had a great family, was a best selling writer and was going places! That is until her brother started causing issues and her family was violently murdered. Now she shy's away from the public eye and ghost writes. She still gets to fulfill her love of writing without the bs that goes with it. Imagine her excitement when she gets a job ghostwriting for an anonymous author who wants a romantic suspense/murder mystery book written! That's right up her alley!



In order to get some background on law enforcement procedures, she teams up with Blake to learn how police investigate. Blake is a hot, single cop that has recently relocated to get away himself. Imagine his surprise when his first case turns out to be a serial killer. Now, Blake and Spencer are chasing down a serial killer and things are also heating up between them.



This story has twists, turns, surprises and holy shit moments. I think Ms. Drake took me down a rabbit hole more times than I can count and every time I thought I had it all figured out....Ms. Drake threw me for another loop. Rabbit holes and loops...



For those of you that know me. Ms. Drake is one of my five unicorn author's. She truly can't write a bad book and everything she writes is magical! This book was no different. This was original, fast paced, edge of your seat goodness that will keep you reading until you get to the end. And don't even get me started on that ending.... WTH?



So once again, Ms. Drake get's all my recommendations and I can't wait for her next book! Don't delay and start reading this today!!!
