My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this book and it is one of my favorites by this author. This author continues to impress me with her writing skills and her attention to details. This book is no different. It is full of suspense, action and revenge. The characters are well throughout and bring the story to life. I had no problem connecting with them. The twists and turns left me sitting on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what would happen next. Some of them even shocked me. Eleanor’s relationship has been falling apart and now she just wants some revenge. When she finds herself working with him, she finds herself in her therapists office. There is a killer on the loose that needs to be caught. The problem with this is that the person who is trying to help her could be the one she is after. When faced with revenge, will she take it or will she do what’s right? Eleanor is my favorite. She is strong and really just made the story for me. This was an easy story to read as it was entertaining as well as suspenseful. This made a great afternoon read on a cold day. I highly recommend this book and this author.
