Book Description:
​
Some killers are born. Others are made.

​As a rookie tabloid reporter, Jenna Sinclair made a tragic mistake when she outed Denny Dennison, the illegitimate son of an executed serial killer. So she hid behind her marriage and motherhood. Now, decades later, betrayed by her husband and resented by her teenage daughter, Jenna decides to resurrect her career—and returns to the city she loves.

When her former lover is brutally assaulted outside Jenna’s NYC apartment building, Jenna suspects that Denny has inherited his father’s psychopath gene and is out for revenge. She knows she must track him down before he can harm his next target, her daughter.

Meanwhile, her estranged husband, Zack, fears that her investigative reporting skills will unearth his own devastating secret he’d kept buried in the past.

From New York City to the remote North Fork of Long Island and the murky waters surrounding it, Jenna rushes to uncover the terrible truth about a psychopath and realizes her own investigation may save or destroy her family.

MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BOOK

When I saw the cover of this book I knew I  had to read it. As a rookie tabloid reporter, Jenna thinks she made a huge mistake when she outed the illegitimate son of an executed serial killer. That's enough for a horrific story in itself. When things started happening around her. Sick, scary things, Jenna has to do something about it. She had to track down this guy and stop him before her daughter is his target. 

 

Wow what a journey this was. This book has all of the good stuff you want to read in a good thriller. Fool Her Once is full of thrills and chills, and it's share of twists and turns to keep you hanging on to the edge of your seat. I love this cast of colorful characters that gives this story plenty of sparkle and intrigues. If you love a suspenseful thrill when you are reading look no farther, we have your book. I can't wait to read what's from this author. Go out and grab this one.
