What do You think about The Kill (2006)?
Another despicable serial killer - but did they catch the right one?This 3rd book in the Predator Trilogy features the lab rat "Olivia St. Martin" - friend of Rowan Smith from The Preyand Miranda Moore from The Hunt - all 3 were classmates in the FBI Academy at Quantico, all 3 have emotional issues, and all 3 got involved in the cases of their lives.This book was no different, except Olivia is on the case because of deceit - not in a bad sense, but still.The man she thought had abducted her older sister back when they were kids and then killed her and was caught mostly with Olivia's testimony gets released because of DNA evidence. So who was the real killer and where is he now.Not a bad read - Kjen you will love this series - the hot scenes are hot and "lengthy" :)2 thumbs up for the trilogy.

this book would have gotten four stars if it wasn't for the hardcore porn descriptions AGAIN. I really feel uncomfortable reading such detailed content since porn is not my genre of choice.romance is ok, subtle hints at sex are ok but describing genitals isn't!!!other than that, this book is better than the second part of the trilogy and much better than the first part which was totally bland and very amateurishly written if I might say so.I will even read the second trilogy to see if she'll ever drop the porn, I really hope she realised it's just superfluous!storyline and characters are decent, the pace is dynamic and it isn't boring at any time.it's only a bit hasty and naive how the main male protagonist falls in love at first sight with the female so easily and without knowing her, a bit too naive for a seasoned reader like me.

I tried to read Miranda's story, but found her actions to be so unreasonable, I couldn't stand it. I wanted to give the author another shot, so I tried Olivia's story. And I found her to be pretty damn unreasonable, as well, but not as bad.I liked the story, I really did. But there was a lot of nonsense that wasn't necessary. It felt like filler and without it, the story would have still been a full length novel. I don't want to read about Olivia's self-guilt trips every freaking chapter. I don't want to read about how much Olivia frets over stupid shit that she has, and never had, any control over.So I didn't read it. I skimmed the hell out of this book, basically just looking for dialogue and reading the first and last sentence of each paragraph. I seriously doubt I missed anything.The plot was good and the villain was sufficiently scary. The romance felt real and the forensics were interesting. I liked the characters, too. And I usually have issues with the heroine. But I didn't have an issue with Olivia, I really just had an issue with the author and how much she repeated herself - usually about Olivia's guilt and worrying.Tedious. That's the word I'm looking for... the writing about Olivia was tedious.I'd probably recommend this book, but it'd be waaay down the list of recommendations.
