Murder Girl by Lisa Renee Jones - review by A Midlife Wife

Such a horrible name for a book, don’t you think? Unless you are looking at the sequel to the story about FBI agent Lilah Love. And if you have read the first book, Murder Notes, then you will understand why this book is named such as it is.

I’m so happy to be able to review this new book as the first book just blew me away. But make sure you have your head in the right place to read this story. Dark, gruesome, and a whole lot of sexy all wrapped up together.

If you’re ready for that, check out my review below.

ABOUT:
It’s Lilah Love’s job to inhabit a killer’s mind. The unapologetically tough FBI profiler is very comfortable there. But her latest case is making her head spin. It’s a string of brutal assassinations carried out across the country, each tied to a mysterious tattoo. Body by body, she’s followed the clues all the way back to her hometown. And every step of the way, the killer has been following her.

Here, beneath the glamour of the privileged Hamptons community, is a secret long buried but never forgotten. It’s bigger than Lilah. It’s powerful enough to escape the reach of the FBI. And it’s more personal than anyone can imagine. Because it’s hiding in Lilah’s own past. To fight it, she’s forced to turn to her lethally tempting ex, Kane Mendez. He’s an expert at bringing out Lilah’s darkest impulses. If she plans to survive, she’s going to need them.

Murder Girl by Lisa Renee Jones Review

Sometimes I have to wonder about the type books I gravitate to. I love the twisted minds and the amazing ability a writer has to have to create these twisted paths and intersected stories.

Not many writers have that ability. I’ve read many books in this genre – romantic suspense, thriller, crime fiction, cop fiction; and there several authors that stand out as doing it well. There are also authors that I don’t read anymore because they don’t do it well.

Trust me when I tell you that Lisa Renée Jones is an author that does it extremely well. She always has the perfect balance of intrigue, darkness, edginess, raw emotion, sex and heat, and so much more wrapped into her stories. She writes in a way that makes you feel addicted to the book… like a craving you just have to have.

I started reading her books from the romance side and now I read her books because of the intrigue and the suspense. The romance and sex is the cherry on top. Pun intended. And trust me, Kane is definitely a cherry on top.

Murder Girl is an intense, fast paced book that will twist you around in so many different ways that you feel like you cannot keep track of what’s going on. And I like that. I like being surprised in a story. That’s exactly why I read books by Lisa Renée Jones.

Huge impact in this one. Make sure to grab it and part one, Murder Notes. You simply have to read it first!
