One Scream Away by Kate Brady
4.0
This book was a GREAT adventure!
I really appreciated the cat-and-mouse back and forth as we saw how the Bad Guy was stalking, taunting and teasing our Female Lead, and as Our Hero started to interfere with his game.
Our Hero was a good guy but damaged by his past. The Bad Guy was a combination of mentally ill and pure evil. Our Female Lead was tough and feisty and in over her head.
Unfortunately, this book didn't work so well for me as a romance. I didn't really feel the attraction, although the author told me it was there. It also broke one of my rules of romantic suspense-- the lead characters didn't work as a team.
Once I decided to read it as a thriller rather than romantic suspense, I enjoyed it.
