This book started out okay, but got worse and worse with each turn of the page. I can't deal with stupid characters, and Rachel was pretty stupid. The romance was anything but romantic. The I Love You's came way too late and were unbelievable. This book was kind of a mess. ( )

I knew her the killer was before the first chapter had finished just by the prologue alone and this kind of disappointed me. I like to be held in suspense, but this held nothing of that for me. The husband's control issues are made obvious in the first chapter, his not wanting to clean his car. Hell, the fact it's mentioned the kiler is married in the prologue followed by the first chapter gave it completely away.

Major disappointment in that aspect. The rest of the novel was okay if you take away the fact the plot pretty much was given away straight away and was the whole husband is a serial killer, girl is absolutely clueless and marries the killer of her daughter's friend and then falls for his brother. And of course, husband - serial killer married her because he wants her daughter and she's to be his next victim.

Ane Stuart is usually a good writer but this just did not work for her.

While not the best of Stuart's work, this is still a good book. A good thread of suspense underlies the story from start to end, and it was easy to get caught up in what was happening on the page. Also, the characters are well-developed and interesting. ( )

Had a terrific plot that should have kept me on the edge of my seat, but it failed because there was no emotion and every time a crisis was set up, it was diffused immediately. ( )
