People who preyed on those weaker and more defenseless than themselves deserved whatever punishment was thrown at them.
That thought drove Dr. Georgia Dennis in every decision she made, personal and professional. A profiler with the Complex Crimes Unit of the FBI, she was tired of being second-guessed by her boss Michael “Hell” Hellbrook.
Once they caught the sociopath responsible for … responsible for stoning teenaged girls, she was gone from Hellbrook’s team faster than the ink could dry on the transfer papers. Georgia and Hellbrook are hot on the trail of a sadistic killer targeting women and girls with brown hair and brown eyes—women with a striking resemblance to Georgia.
Hellbrook will do anything to protect his team, even the woman he never wanted on it in the first place. By keeping her at his side, he grows closer to her until the flame between them erupts and consumes them both.
As they get deeper involved with the case and with each other, they do not realize someone else is watching, someone whose descent into madness threatens everyone around them.
Is this watcher their killer, or someone much closer?

Great plot with many twist. Loved the characters.
Good characters, plenty of action, mostly happy ending. I found the third plot with the second UNSUB to be distracting and unnecessary. Still, I liked the book enough to continue the series as it’s well worth reading.
I would have given this book 5 stars as I loved the story and the adventure the characters faced. I struggled with a few gramatical things that seemed to repeat themselves throughout the book though which slightly annoyed me when I had to make sure I read something corectly because I was slightly thrown off by punctuation and grammer. I will check …
Exceptional writing, phenomenal characters. A Definite Must Read!! Callie J. Brooks has now been added to My Absolute Favorite Authors List! I must own this Series! I can’t say enough wonderful things about this Author.
A romantic suspense story that kept me up way past my bedtime. I kept saying, one more chapter till I realized that I had to finish it. It delivered on all fronts.
This book is full of the unexpected and impossible to put down. From highly detailed cases to working relationships to deep character analysis, the plot takes you in and out of the lives of FBI Agents Georgia and Hellbrook and their evolving relationship.
An outstanding book.
I had most of these marked but then they disappear doing it on my phone. This story was great. Lots of twists and turns you are not expecting!! Not a lot of language or explicit sex. Very, very good story. A standalone with an HEA!!!
Love this series and author!
I would like to start off this review by saying I read every book in this series (PAVAD) and the connected series (Finley Creek) and the stories and characters are wonderful. I’m sure it is not easy to come up with different story lines when you have so many books which basically revolve around a couple of locations/workplaces and family …
Excellent read!
4.5 stars.
A thrilling FBI suspense story. Not only does the team have to tackle finding a serial murderer that stones to death young girls or woman. Someone from the inside seems to be losing his contact with reality and throwing a conundrum into the investigation.
The romance runs along very nicely with suspense and does not overwhelm the …
I’d give it 10 stars if I could.
This story was creepy!!! While I know it’s just fiction, the fact that there really are wackos like Byrum, religious nut jobs killing young girls and women in the name of God because of some perverted sense of judgement and righteousness, is scary enough making stories like this frightening.
The suspense in this book was so much better than the …
I love the entire series of her FBI and Finley Creek fiction books
Very good and one I didn’t want to put down. And disappointed it ended. Good author
Great romantic suspense
I enjoyed the whole series and hope there are more coming
I enjoyed the read, the plot, the twists…some details are best left to the imagination, but apart from that, a very interesting who-done-it read…
The characters were so great that I have continued reading the other books in the series.
