Review: Cold Blooded

✩✩✩✩✩

Disgraced investigative journalist Pip West is devastated when she discovers her best friend’s body face-down in a tranquil lake. When cops and federal agents determine that her friend overdosed then drowned, Pip knows they’re mistaken and intends to prove it.

Special Agent Hunt Kincaid doesn’t trust journalists and has no patience for Pip’s delusions, especially since her meddling could reveal why the FBI is interested in her friend’s last days. The dead scientist worked at the cutting edge of vaccine research and might have a connection to a new, weaponized, vaccine-resistant anthrax strain that just hit the black market.

The more Pip digs, the closer she gets to both the sexy FBI agent, and to a bioweapons terrorist who’s more than capable of cold-bloodedly sacrificing anyone who gets in his way.

Genre: romantic suspense

Publication date: June 2018

Mature content: yes

Review: Cold Blooded is probably my favorite book in the entire Cold Justice series (all books can be read as stand alones). The two main characters are realistic and relatable, even if Hunt comes across as a bit rude and inflexible in the beginning. 

The suspense is good, the action flows well and the subject is actually very up to date, given the current world events. There are a lot of twists and turns and despite the predictable romance between Pip and Hunt, everything else is mostly unexpected.

   

If romantic suspense is your genre, then this book may be perfect for you. 

Happy readings!
