Killing Sarai
J A Redmerski
Jessica wrote The Edge of Never (my review can be found here) and I loved it.
So to say I'm rather pleased there is a new JA Redmerski book coming out is an understatement!
And, just because the new book is so good, the price is being dropped on release day!

Blurb:
Sarai was only fourteen when her mother uprooted her to live in Mexico with a notorious drug lord. Over time she forgot what it was like to live a normal life, but she never let go of her hope to escape the compound where she has been held for the past nine years.
Victor is a cold-blooded assassin who, like Sarai, has known only death and violence since he was a young boy. When Victor arrives at the compound to collect details and payment for a hit, Sarai sees him as her only opportunity for escape. But things don’t go as planned and instead of finding transport back to Tucson, she finds herself free from one dangerous man and caught in the clutches of another.
While on the run, Victor strays from his primal nature as he succumbs to his conscience and resolves to help Sarai. As they grow closer, he finds himself willing to risk everything to keep her alive; even his relationship with his devoted brother and liaison, Niklas, who now like everyone else wants Sarai dead.
As Victor and Sarai slowly build a trust, the differences between them seem to lessen, and an unlikely attraction intensifies. But Victor’s brutal skills and experience may not be enough in the end to save her, as the power she unknowingly holds over him may ultimately be what gets her killed.
This is their story…

The Edge of Never
Blurb: Twenty-year-old Camryn Bennett had always been one to think out-of-the-box, who knew she wanted something more in life than following the same repetitive patterns and growing old with the same repetitive life story. And she thought that her life was going in the right direction until everything fell apart.
Determined not to dwell on the negative and push forward, Camryn is set to move in with her best friend and plans to start a new job. But after an unexpected night at the hottest club in downtown North Carolina, she makes the ultimate decision to leave the only life she’s ever known, far behind.
With a purse, a cell phone and a small bag with a few necessities, Camryn, with absolutely no direction or purpose boards a Greyhound bus alone and sets out to find herself. What she finds is a guy named Andrew Parrish, someone not so very different from her and who harbors his own dark secrets. But Camryn swore never to let down her walls again. And she vowed never to fall in love.
But with Andrew, Camryn finds herself doing a lot of things she never thought she’d do. He shows her what it’s really like to live out-of-the-box and to give in to her deepest, darkest desires. On their sporadic road-trip he becomes the center of her exciting and daring new life, pulling love and lust and emotion out of her in ways she never imagined possible. But will Andrew’s dark secret push them inseparably together, or tear them completely apart?
Stunning, Simply & Outstandingly Stunning.
J.A. Redmersky can write a story that evokes emotion, hurt, pain, love, hope, anguish, loss and togetherness like no one else.
The Story covers Camryn packing up and leaving home at the same time Andrew packs everything up and heads home. They meet on a Greyhound bus and get to know each other, this is all I can say without ruining any of the story.
There were very few negatives in this book but I subtracted 0.5* as - even though the story was incredible - there was just something missing for me. I can't put my finger on exactly what it was, but this just didn't have the "grip" like Beautiful Disaster, Slammed, Hopeless etc.
This book had me weeping tears of anguish and also of joy. A true NA romance.
Cannot wait on The Edge of Always coming out & it is definately near the top of my reading list.
