The Betrayal by Cole Baxter

-

Thank you to Zooloos Book Tours for introducing me to this thrilling book!!!

She thought she could escape the past. But now it’s found her…

 

Erin is determined to begin a new chapter in her life. Having freed herself from her violent and abusive ex, she’s starting over on a remote island where she can lead a peaceful, quiet life.

 

But then she meets Dominic. He is pushy and won’t take no for an answer. Given her history, Erin feels nervous of him – how far will he go to get what he wants? Even worse, Erin discovers her ex-husband has been released from prison. Will he come after her again?

 

And her terror only increases when it becomes clear there is a killer loose on the island.

 

Refusing to live in fear any longer, she devises a dangerous plan to unmask the killer. But in so doing she stumbles across the deadly secret at the heart of this island community, a discovery more terrifying than anything she could ever have imagined.


Review:


All Erin wants is a peaceful life. She’s escaping her ex husband and his family. Her ex tried to kill her and he and his family make her life miserable.


I loved this book. It was the perfect combination of thriller and heartwarming. Erin loves animals and has a big heart for them. She starts her own pet grooming business and is so kind to the animals, especially the rescue dogs.


The thriller part id the book is Erin’s past. Women also are murdered on the small island and Erin and her fiends want to catch the killer before more people are hurt.


This is a book that will keep you hooked. Prepare to be dazzled!


About the author:

Cole Baxter loves writing psychological suspense thrillers. It’s all about that last reveal that he loves shocking readers with.

He grew up in New York, where there crime was all around. He decided to turn that into something positive with his fiction.

His stories will have you reading through the night—they are very addictive! (I couldn’t agree more!!!!)
