Also usually Armstrong includes romance in her books so I guess I've come to expect that. It was fun to see them go from not liking each other to becoming friends to more. And the characterization was great, I really enjoyed finding out more about the characters as the story progressed.<br />I don't read thrillers a lot either, so I was pleasantly surprised I enjoyed this one as much as I did. And yes the start was a bit slow, and it picked up when they got into town.

I do quite like Kelley Armstrong though so I'd be willing to give this one a shot! I didn't know she'd come out with a straight up thriller, I've only read her paranormal books so far. She writes SO MANY books there, I can't keep up LOL! Glad you enjoyed this one for the most part Greg :)Michelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09220874121683955988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-57951682451298644662016-05-26T11:13:04.701-07:002016-05-26T11:13:04.701-07:00I got this from the library but have to return it ...I got this from the library but have to return it this weekend. Someone else reserved it so I can't renew it.

Based on her other series, I wouldn't be surprised if a Scifi or paranormal element of some sort eventually pops up in this series. <br /><br />I haven't read this one yet but it's sitting on my TBR pile.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-85361668930738363912016-05-25T18:25:50.016-07:002016-05-25T18:25:50.016-07:00I'm glad this one picked up for you.

I will say because it's Kelley Armstrong I would have expected a paranormal aspect so thank goodness I saw this first before I read it and was disappointed lol!
