 Back cover blurb:

The Heart of a Killer
Book One in The Killer Series
No one said coming home would be easy. But for Dante Renaldi, it's murder.
Before the Special Forces hero has even unpacked his bags from twelve years of active duty, he's embroiled in murder—corpses bearing the brutal trademark he's seen only once before—on the worst night of his life.

The last time Detective Anna Pallino saw Dante Renaldi, they were in love. Now, he's part of the connection to a string of fresh homicides and a horrible assault Anna only survived thanks to him.
More than anything, Anna wants to trust Dante. But as the bodies and the coincidences stack up, Anna will have to decide, and fast: Is the man she owes her life to the very same one who wants her dead?

I LOVED THIS BOOK!!!!

I tried not to put this book down, but life got in the way....imagine, my kids actually wanted me to cook dinner & help with homework, the nerve of them!!
This book had it all, multiple murders, suspense, secrets, sexy bad boys, and of course love. I was pulled into the story right from the begining. I loved all the charecters, when I can picture each person in my minds eye, I know the author has hit it right on.
The interaction between Dante and Anna was hot! (not erotic) Bold! Even when they were teens, you could feel their connection. The way Dante helped Anna through her panic attacks was perfect, he didn't coddle her, or blow it off.
The twists in this story had me guessing for quite awhile. I like that! I really wasn't sure of the answers, until the end. For me, that's great. I don't want to read a suspense story and know it all right from the begining.

There was nothing about this book I didn't like!
I want more......

I have never written a review, so this a first for me. Please, do yourself a favor, and check out
Heart of a Killer by Jaci Burton for yourself. I don't think you will be disappointed.
