About the Book
by Dana Louise Provo
Publication Date: August 25, 2016
Publisher: Clean Reads
Orphaned at an early age, now twenty-four-year-old Camryn Lucks is ready to commit to find that special someone, and so accepts a date from a charming, gallant, handsome stranger. The last thing she imagines after accepting that first date with Carson would actually be the beginning of her worst nightmare.
Red roses, a reminder of her parents' killer, soon become an emblem of horror for Cami as one by one, those closest to her fall victim to a serial killer. Cami becomes an obsession for Carson, the man she had finally allowed herself to love. Not only is he vying for her heart, but also her life.
Finding herself in a whirlwind of torments shadowed by the blood-colored bloom, Cami finds solace in Isaac, a neighboring police officer. She’s desperate to escape the haunting memories, but she must revisit them in order to catch her would-be killer. Living life in constant fear has driven Cami to second-guess every choice she makes. Will the police catch the illusive murderer, or will Cami be forced to face him once again?

Cami thought she had finally met her Prince Charming when she started going out with Carson, but as their relationship developed, cracks in her Mr. Perfect began to show and what she thought was the perfect guy began to show his ugly side. Possessive, abusive, and controlling, Carson wants Cami all to himself and will do anything to make it so. Ignoring all of the signs, Cami continues to allow the relationship to develop leading to one explosive night, which is where we first meet our main character, Cami.
The story opens with the attack and is told in flashbacks as Cami reflects on how her relationship with Carson went so wrong and shares her story with her police officer neighbor and temporary bodyguard, Isaac. At times the whole back and forth got a bit confusing, but I am glad we got to see how the relationship with Carson developed and the signs that something was not right…if only Cami had seen them (or rather paid attention to and didn‘t ignore them). There were also a few things that happened that seemed a bit out of place in the story (I won’t spoil them by mentioning them). And the surprise twists/strange coincidences really got me. I definitely didn’t see those coming! The author definitely knows how to surprise a reader.
It was nice to see Cami grow as a character and recognize the signs she ignored in her previous relationship. I would like to think that this experience has changed her. Despite losing everyone close to her, she is determined to not be afraid anymore. I really admire that determination. This was a very interesting romantic suspense with unique twists and turns.
My Rating: 3 Stars
