review 1: The whole idea of the book is that how even killers have families. This is perhaps the first romantic suspense novel I've read. But the serial killer family bit was done in Dexter,and much better, so I was disappointed at that front. but the book scores well on the building up of mystery and anticipation. the characters are detailed and diverse. However, there is no character development and the ending kind of disappoints because you don't expect such an easy one after the whole book talking about the difficulty of the situation. One time read.
review 2: I am a huge fan of Anne Stuart and I was so disappointed in this book, which I reread hoping I would find something new that would make me maybe like it a bit more. But no, it did not!!!!It wasn't so much that
... morewe know right from the beginning who the villainous serial killer is but the fact the heroine, Rachel has to be one of the most stupidest women ever!!!!!!!! A world traveler who is suppose to be independent, strong and adventurous and spends the whole time in total bliss…..everyone knows that her bland and boring husband is the killer except her!!!! You figure that out!!!!!!!!! And Caleb, the dark and good and sexy brother to the killer….I wanted to get so much more about him….but instead there’s so little about him except that he’s the good guy who wants his brother’s wife!!!!!! I wanted more hotness, more sexiness but each scene between Rachel & Caleb just fell flat for me……because I had these thoughts in my head………”come on Rachel, wake up!!! Get real!!!”Thank heavens for her daughter Sophie, who was the one character I really liked and despite the initial dislike for Caleb & David’s (yes the said serial killer husband of Rachel) father, I kind of warmed up to him in the end…….at least he gave us readers a bit of a surprise……..you’re gonna have to read to the book to find out what it was!!!!!!!!!!!So, whilst not being an awful or horrible book, it’s certainly not one of this author’s amazing books….and I have to be honest and say that I didn’t exactly hate it……..I did learn a bit about the Northwest “liquid” sunshine!!!!!!!!!!!!! less

Pretty good. Predictable. The mom's an idiot. But it kept me entertained for an evening.
