One was a detective's daughter, one was a minister's daughter, and one was a wild child. Someone was watching them. Someone attacked them. Two girls ran, and the third was assaulted. Luckily they all escaped with their lives. They made a pact to never tell anyone what happened. All three girls left town as soon as they possibly good. Not all of them told anyone they were leaving. Several girls had disappeared and never seen again. Today ... all three of these girls have returned to their hometown for one reason or another. They've all tried to leave the past behind, but the past has a way of catching up to them. Each of them receive a copy of a picture taken 15 years earlier .... when they were skinny dipping. Only one person could have taken that picture. HE is watching ... waiting for the opportunity to grab each one of them. They hurt him when they got away ... they denied him what he wanted most. Now he wants vengeance. WARNING: EXPLICIT SEX, BONDAGE, RAPE, VIOLENCE This was a typical Jackson/Bush story line. It's well written, with lots of characters and red herrings. Ever after romance is in abundance. The hunt for the rapist is what kept me reading. The ending wasn't that big of a surprise except for the bad guy's identity. Many thanks to the authors / Kensington Books - Zebra / Netgalley for the advance digital copy of OMINOUS. Opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own. [Ominous] by Lisa Jackson Wyoming Series Book #2 3 Stars From the Book: NO WARNING In the photograph, three teenaged girls splash in the lake on a sweltering summer evening. Shiloh, Kat, and Ruth are unaware of the man who spies on them from the woods. They have no idea how their lives will be changed by the brutal violence that follows—and the vow of secrecy they take. CAN PREPARE YOU Fifteen years later, Ruth and Shiloh have both returned to Prairie Creek, Wyoming, where Kat is deputy sheriff. Though they’ve tried to leave their shared past behind, each has the feeling that someone is lurking in the shadows. When a local girl vanishes, Kat is convinced there’s a connection to that long ago night. But as the friends unite to find the missing teenager, a killer sends a chilling message. FOR A KILLER’S VENGEANCE He’s still there. And he hasn’t forgotten. For so long he’s made do with other victims, but they can’t compare to the ones who got away. The ones who keep searching for him, blind to the terrifying truth that they are not the hunters, but his prey . My Views: The prologue was excellent and frankly it's what kept me reading. I thought that eventually we would get back to the missing girls and we did, but we had to go through a lot of romance and things that didn't really make the story live up to it's description or the way it started out. Two other authors besides Lisa Jackson had a hand in the writing so maybe that accounts for some of the way the story jumped around. There was so much that could have been done with the story line that started 15 years ago...the missing girls in the present...and the woman that we kept seeing in the cabin that had been held prisoner for years, without all the other stuff. Can't say that I didn't like the book but it wasn't one of my favorites by any means. näyttää 5/5 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

Written by 3 authors, the story started strong and then got boring. So much less than what I was hoping for. ( )
