Killer Smile by Allan Evans – Review by Brandy Vaughn

Killer SmileKiller Smile by Allan Evans
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book two in the Killer series and does well as a stand alone novel. There plenty of crime, mystery, and murder to keep you pulled into the story until the end. Readers will enjoy this twisted game of cat and mouse. This is a little grittier and darker than Killer Blonde, which I enjoyed!!

Killer Blonde by Allan Evans – Review by Brandy Vaughn

Killer BlondeKiller Blonde by Allan Evans
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What’s not to love when reading a crime thriller where a serial killer is involved? Killer Blonde doesn’t disappoint. Dawkins hours on his own dark path as he hunts down a serial killer who kills blondes on the highway. I haven’t read this genre of book where the killer takes to the highway. It’s interesting to read from the killer’s mind. The novel made me think twice about driving alone at night and looking in the back seat before I get in.

Ritual Obsession (Blood Obsession Book 1) by R.L. Dunn – Review by Brandy Vaughn

Ritual Obsession (Blood Obsession Book 1)Ritual Obsession by R.L. Dunn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

New York City is under siege, by a diabolical serial killer designated as The Bathtub Murderer, which I thought was unique. This mystery-romantic suspense gives the reader plenty of action, romance, voodoo rituals, graphic depictions of both consensual and nonconsensual sex, and murder.

This story has excellent strong female lead characters. You empathize for them when they go through heartbreak and traumatizing experiences. The storyline is sometimes emotionally intense, as it touches on the subject of murder, sexual assault and the aftermath of surviving sexual assault. Please be advised that many readers may find the story disturbing and/or triggering. The author does include a trigger warning at the beginning of the book, which is appreciated.

This is an excellent start to the series and reminds me of the In Death series by J.D. Robb without the setting in the future! I look forward to reading more in the Blood Obsession series!
