My Killer Vacation by Tessa Bailey
4.0
3.5 stars
I didn’t have the highest expectations going into this, and I’m glad for it because this was in no way groundbreaking. The mystery/thriller aspect was just good enough to keep my attention. It took me some time to warm up to the FMC, Taylor; she toed the line of being too quirky for me, but things worked out and she was actually quite nice.
The real standout for me was Myles. He had me in a chokehold from the start. Myles, the ex detective with PTSD from a case gone wrong who became a bounty hunter. Myles, who kept everyone at arm’s length so he’d never let anyone down again. Myles, who couldn’t understand why he couldn’t stay away from Taylor even though he told her they could never be together. Myles, who was upset when Taylor respected his boundaries even though it was the last thing his body wanted. Myles, who became a desperate mess when anything happened to Taylor. Oh, and he had a filthy mouth and knew how to use it. I could go on and on, but this man was a very nice surprise. He deserved a better book.
