Agent Lilah Love has worked hard to forget her past, walking away from her family and a man she loved after one night took a disastrous turn. She's now a profiler for the FBI, but a series of assassination-style murders is sending her back to her hometown, and back into the past she thought she'd left behind. Can Lilah unlock the secrets from the past while dealing with the murders from the present?
MURDER NOTES is the first book in the Lilah Love duology and you're definitely going to want the second book in hand as soon as you finish MURDER NOTES! Quite honestly, I hope the series continues well past the second book as Lilah Love is a great heroine, full of spunk even in the face of some very scary obstacles. Her family heritage would intimidate most, but Lilah takes it all in stride as she gives as good as she gets.
Lilah isn't the only fascinating character however. Kane is swoon-worthy, even as we question whether or not he's involved in the shadier side of things - including murder. Lilah's drawn to him against her better judgement and the sparks fly between them, both verbally and physically! In fact, no one in MURDER NOTES is completely trustworthy as Lisa Renee Jones hypes up the tension with each new development.
MURDER NOTES is a spectacular introduction to the Lilah Love series, one I hope will continue long past the second book. Lisa Renee Jones does a marvelous job at balancing the tension, interjecting humor to keep the reader from overdosing on adrenaline. Don't expect to know all the answers at the conclusion, however, as the cliffhanger ending leaves just as many questions. I can't wait to see what Lisa Renee Jones has in store for us with the next book, MURDER GIRL!
New York Times bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones’s heart-pounding thriller of a woman’s secrets—and a past that’s about to come out of hiding… As an FBI profiler, it’s Lilah Love’s job to think like a killer. And she is very good at her job. When a series of murders surface—the victims all stripped naked and shot in the head—Lilah’s instincts tell her it’s the work of an assassin, not a serial killer. But when the case takes her back to her hometown in the Hamptons and a mysterious but unmistakable connection to her own life, all her assumptions are shaken to the core. Thrust into a troubled past she’s tried to shut the door on, Lilah’s back in the town where her father is mayor, her brother is police chief, and she has an intimate history with the local crime lord’s son, Kane Mendez. The two share a devastating secret, and only Kane understands Lilah’s own darkest impulses. As more corpses surface, so does a series of anonymous notes to Lilah, threatening to expose her. Is the killer someone in her own circle? And is she the next target?
