Jasper Ford has been waiting for his wife to come home from her trip. Drex had decided to head to Charleston in hopes to watch and see what's going on in the house next door to the place he rented for a few months. He had the idea that this Jasper was the person he was looking for. What surprised him, was that the guy had gotten married. He hadn't met his wife yet. 

Jasper has invited him out on a cruise, on a friends boat. There he will be introduced to his wife. He was excited but, knew he needed to be careful. After arriving and getting on the Yacht. He was introduced to the owner, Elaine. A few minutes later, he saw his wife and knew he was in trouble. She was a knock out, her name is Talia. 

Their cruise around the water was good and Drex spent a little while trying to ask and avoid as many questions as he could. He was really having a problem. He was very attracted to her and everything in him wanted her so badly. But, she was with a crazy person for the moment. 

Later on the night after he got home, he had already put a listening device in the kitchen so he could here what they were saying. They had talked about getting together one more time for dinner but, because he didn't know that many restraunts he needed a list. What he didn't know was that in the morning he was going to have a visitor. 

Talia showed up at his door. She was wearing jeans and to him they showed every curve of her body. He thought, "damn," he wanted to take her right there but, couldn't/ He was there to get Jasper. He knew that Jasper had killed nine women so far. She had come to give him a list of restraunts. 

Well, I'll say this. The ending of this book will surprise you. Because it surprised me. Loved it. But, when it comes to this author, I've never been disappointed. You'll have to pick up the book and read it. 

I'm off to start my next book. Remember to pick up a good book.
