Special Agent Gideon Reynolds has tried hard to put his past behind him. He escaped the violence of his cult upbringing when he was just thirteen, and since then routine and discipline have been his way of making sense of the world. But when a petite blonde woman crashes into his life, he begins to realize that a little bit of chaos might not be so bad.
Daisy Dawson has had more than her fair share of pain too—but she's done being a victim. Daisy's determined to explore every new experience she can—including getting to know the dark and serious FBI investigator she meets when she fights off a masked attacker one night.
It soon becomes clear that Daisy's attack was just the beginning. Now the bloodied bodies of young women are showing up all over California, and, as Gideon tries to find the killer, it's clear that Daisy is in more danger than they ever realised...

I received this book via NetGalley to give an honest review.

I have to say I was pretty impressed with the book and this story line. We are introduced to Daisy who sadly lived her life sheltered and, now that she is grown she is stepping out doing her own things. As a character I liked how tough Daisy was when protecting others. Yes she had a service dog to help her with her anxiety which is pretty neat but, she didn't use that as a crutch. When she gets attacked she doesn't let that stop her from anything she is just more reserved but yet, what she ends up uncovering is that this dude has been doing this for a long time. The clue that she remembers on her attacker has her introduced to Agent Reynolds, they will pair up and bring to justice the person who is behind all of it. It seems this attacker has been doing this for a long time and we get to get a little bit of insight on why he is the way he is. While trying to capture this attacker Reynolds will have to face his past and open up old wounds that he has dealt with silently all these years. I did like how the relationship blossomed between these two characters. It wasn't  just a wham bam thank ya ma'am kind of relationship. They are two damaged souls that can and will be able to heal each other over time. This book to me was a perfect combination of suspense, romance, murder which made it hard to put down!
