Description from the publisher:

New York Times bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones’s heart-pounding thriller of a woman’s secrets—and a past that’s about to come out of hiding…

As an FBI profiler, it’s Lilah Love’s job to think like a killer. And she is very good at her job. When a series of murders surface—the victims all stripped naked and shot in the head—Lilah’s instincts tell her it’s the work of an assassin, not a serial killer. But when the case takes her back to her hometown in the Hamptons and a mysterious but unmistakable connection to her own life, all her assumptions are shaken to the core.

Thrust into a troubled past she’s tried to shut the door on, Lilah’s back in the town where her father is mayor, her brother is police chief, and she has an intimate history with the local crime lord’s son, Kane Mendez. The two share a devastating secret, and only Kane understands Lilah’s own darkest impulses. As more corpses surface, so does a series of anonymous notes to Lilah, threatening to expose her. Is the killer someone in her own circle? And is she the next target?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MURDER NOTES is the first book in the Lilah Love series. They will definitely need to be read in the order of release as this is an ongoing story.

Gah! Cliff-hangers!! Lisa Renee Jones is a queen at them, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I don’t know whether to like the “bad guys” or to dislike the “good guys.” That’s how twisted up this story is of FBI agent, Lilah Love, returning to her hometown. A town where her father is the mayor, her brother is the police chief, and her ex-boyfriend is the head of the local cartel. Ah, Kane – sexy, seductive, secretive, swoon-worthy – should she trust him or not? That seems to be the big question… who can Lilah trust?

I love Lisa Renee Jones’ books. Her romance is supreme and her mysteries are superbly written. This is a - sit on the edge of your seat – can’t put the book down – stay up all night – and scream because there is a cliff-hanger, but you’re ready to one-click the next one – amazing story.
