This is a modern-day retelling of Jekyll & Hyde, and I am absolutely shocked that more people are not talking about this book. When I tell you this book had me on the edge of my seat, I mean it! Let’s start with a little bit of the story.
Ava Cain, a young female detective trying to prove herself to her captain (thanks to some unresolved daddy issues), goes a little too far during an arrest. As a result, she’s sent to see a therapist who has worked with officers before. When she meets Jackson Keller, she’s surprised to find him young and gorgeous, so she doesn’t dismiss him right away. Jackson, the therapist, notices that Ava is attractive too, but he knows it would be highly unprofessional to act on those feelings with a patient. What Ava doesn’t know, however, is that Jackson is broken himself is hiding a dark, murderous alter ego. And that dark side has decided he wants Ava to be his.
When a new serial killer emerges, guess who gets assigned to the case? Yup, Ava Cain.
Cue the stalking, primal instincts, masked men, obsession, and a touch her and 💀 vibe. This book strikes the perfect balance between plot and spice, with just the right amount of suspense and heat. Definitely add this to your TBR!
