"Forensic anthropologist Dr. Jack Sorensen is the perfect serial killer. In the bright lights of his public persona he's a respected scientist, a leader in the field of human decomposition. But in his shadowed secret life he's a ruthless and elusive killer, unseen by the authorities who have failed to follow his faint trail of destruction. Beautifully cold, brilliant and cruel, Jack wants nothing more than to keep his life captured in his vise-like grip of control. And Jack Sorensen never makes mistakes...until he underestimates Dr. Kyrie Roth. Wildlife biologist Kyrie is the enemy Jack never noticed, another murderer in his midst. A killer with equal cunning and stealth as the great Jack Sorensen, she knows all his darkest secrets, even the pieces of a past he might have forgotten. Kyrie has created the perfect habitat for her favorite research subject, but she's finally had enough of being bitten by the beast that lives at Jack's core. Pushed past her breaking point, Kyrie has decided to do whatever it takes to make Jack suffer. But when Kyrie's traumatic past descends on her broken oasis, the only person who can help Kyrie banish her painful shadows might just be her greatest enemy. History can't always be left to decay in a cold grave. Time has a way of thawing secrets, leaving them to shine as bright as bleached bones in the sun. Can Jack and Kyrie set aside their battle and survive a world built to hunt them? Or will they kill each other first?"--Back cover.

No se qué decir, esto ha sido notablemente diferente de lo que estoy acostumbrada. Iba con la mente abierta, no sabía qué encontrarme y he de decir que me ha encantado. Me ha gustado desentrañar los recovecos de la mente de los protagonistas. ¿Qué es lo que lleva a una persona a matar? Me ha mantenido enganchada desde la primera página, no sólo la química de los protagonistas sino los misterios que rodean al pasado y al presente de esta historia.

considering that I am in slight reading slump, i throughly enjoyed this book. I feel like I have to say something first, I saw a criticism that this authors writing was “pretentious” but I highly disagree. I can't lie, many times I was using the dictionary feature on my kindle to see what the fuck a world meant but the authors writing is very lyrical. While I don't feel the characters were super deep and developed, their emotions were which is how we learned about them. this story had me saying “aw” at them fucking over a dead body so like check your trigger warnings. Kyrie and Jack had an incredibly unconventional love, the push and pull between these two was amazing. Kyrie was a sort of FMC I rarely see, imagine Lana from The Mindfuck Series. Jack was the definition of supporting his women, after they got over the whole despising and plotting to kill each other part. Hands down this man would do anything for her, and it was completely reciprocated. He was protective in his own way but let her handle herself bc she was a bad ass bitch. The ending had my heart fucking racing. Truthfully I didn't read the epilogue bc the way it ended was all I needed. I can't wait to read more from this author.
