When LOST agent Asher Young is assigned to her case, Bailey instantly feels an attraction to the intense ex-SEAL who seems to be carrying dark secrets of his own. BUT KEEPING HIS PROMISE . . . Asher can't afford to let his growing feelings for Bailey distract him from his job.

When corpses begin surfacing-all marked with the same tattoo depicting the Death Angel's calling card-Asher must race to stop a twisted killer who wants nothing more than to claim his next prize: Bailey . . .

5 STARS

I don't care what anyone else says,  I really enjoyed this book a lot!  It had a lot to do with Bailey and Asher .  Their being survivors, their personalities and their really strong attraction to each other.  Of course the edge of the seat danger kept things lively, too. 

It just seemed like everyone wanted Bailey, both for good reasons and some bad ones too. The press hounding her just kept up the intensity too.

Asher was super intense all on his own and they weren't kidding that he was dangerous.  Even more so when the nightmares happened.  But he didn't want to hurt an innocent so that added quite a bit of emotion to his part of the story.  

The twists and surprises just kept coming around the corner time and again.  Well written because of that and definitely kept my interest as well.  

I liked how it ended but also gave a quick look into Asher's sister, Ana and her story next.  Bring it on. 

 

I read this book through the HOOPLA Library App.
