Resumen del Editor

In this heart-stopping installment of the On the Edge series, secrets turn deadly as a search and rescue expert and a psychiatrist team up to catch a killer during a dangerous winter storm.

When Aria, a young girl with autism, goes missing, search and rescue expert Beckett Stolle ventures into the swamplands of Texas to track her down.

When he finds the girl, she is alive, sitting next to a corpse painted in blood. Accusations fly, including suspicion that Aria was involved in the macabre murder. Beckett, however, fears this is the work of a notorious serial killer, turning his rescue mission into a hunt for a murderer. But every clue leads back to Aria, who has secrets of her own—something her psychiatrist, Jo Bellerose, sympathizes with on a very deep and dangerous level.

As an ice storm descends on Texas, Jo partners with Beckett, a handsome ex-military outdoorsman, to prove Aria’s innocence and find the real killer before another victim is slain. The two get trapped in the wilderness, where their professional relationship morphs into something intensely personal.

And the danger headed their way is one they never saw coming.

Too easy

I wasn't at all surprised by the ending. Difficult to like the main character and way to easy to figure out the villain.

Preferred sequel!

Between the two books, I preferred the second one better. As a therapist, the ethical issues in the first book kept tripping me up. That’s just a personal issue tho. I also liked the characters in the second book better.

Engaging

I enjoyed this thriller and was engaged the whole time. I was a little surprised by the way Beckett was able to diagnose the psychiatrist.

Great read and great narrators!

This book kept me on the edge of my seat with my mind spinning the entire time! I think I figured out early on who the suspect was, but I was still pulled in so many different directions throughout the book.

It was a little light on the romance and spice, but overall such a good book!

Loved this book!

You must read this if you enjoy romantic suspense!
Just when you think you have figured it out…nope. An autistic teen is missing, then found next to a body…painted in blood. Is this the work of a damaged teen or is there a serial killer on the loose? This story is fast paced with lots of action…and a bit of romance. Highly recommend!

Plot very similar to Buried Deception

It felt like I was listening to the same book as Buried Deception, only the characters were swapped around and the murder plot slightly different.

this guy sucks

Trying to make a guy that is controlling with terrible boundaries out to be a great guy is poison.

This man went through her things with no regard for her privacy. She was not in danger, and there was absolutely no reason for him to invade her privacy. Going through someone's purse, opening a safe, telling her what she will and won't do, gross. This is a grown woman who is a little messy in her personal life and could use some intervention, but this man is not the answer. No adult needs another adult treating them like this. You're either my partner or my parent, not both. the story is completely overshadowed by the dynamics of that relationship. I did not like this at all. I would not recommend it. please stop trying to make this seem loving. It's not. This is controlling. He's aggressive and demeaning and controlling, and saying you love someone doesn't give to carte blanch to take over their life. Yuck to the whole thing.

It was very slow until the end

This book was very slow. The end was predictable but actually pretty good. I’m glad I got through the boring stuff to get to the end.
