About the Book:

Twelve years ago, forensic anthropologist Jamie Cash survived a brutal kidnapping, torture, and rape. After years of therapy, she has made a life for herself--though one that is haunted by memories of her terrifying past. She finally lets herself get close to a man, FBI agent Dakota Richards, when signs start appearing that point to one frightening fact--her attacker is back and ready to finish the job he started all those year ago. Can she escape his grasp a second time? And will she ever be able to let down her guard enough to find true love?

  

My Rating & Thoughts:    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This was my favourite of the series. There is action right from the beginning. The main character is Jamie Cash, the sister of Samantha from book 1. Jamie was kidnapped 12 years ago but was able to escape however her experience has left her with both physical and emotional scars. For years she found comfort in her own home and would not go out in public without someone with her. She has recently graduated with a forensic anthropology degree and began a new job she is enjoying. While working on a case Jamie begins to think her kidnapper is back and as more events unfold she starts to suspect he wants her back. But is Jamie being paranoid? I liked how Jamie’s family and friends took no chances and ensured someone is always with her. There was a certain character I suspected was the villain and was thinking to myself don’t trust that guy. It turned out I was right to be suspicious. I found it was difficult to read what Jamie experienced in the past and what the villain did to his victims. I loved Dakota, he respected Jamie and allowed her to take the lead in the progression of their relationship. I really enjoyed that Conner and Samantha from book one were heavily involved in this story.
