In New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout’s gripping new novel, a young woman comes home to reclaim her life—even as a murderer plots to end it. . .

It’s been ten years since Sasha Keaton left her West Virginia hometown . . . since she escaped the twisted serial killer known as the Groom. Returning to help run her family inn means being whole again, except for one missing piece. The piece that falls into place when Sasha’s threatened—and FBI agent Cole Landis vows to protect her the way he couldn’t a decade ago.
First one woman disappears; then another, and all the while, disturbing calling cards are left for the sole survivor of the Groom’s reign of terror. Cole’s never forgiven himself for not being there when Sasha was taken, but he intends to make up for it now . . . because under the quirky sexiness Cole first fell for is a steely strength that only makes him love Sasha more.
But someone is watching. Waiting. And Sasha’s first mistake could be her last.

Cocktails and Books received this book for free from Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.

Jennifer Armentrout’s Till Death grabs your from the first paragraph of the prologue.  A girl is tied up in a dark basement somewhere and being held by a psychopath. Key up creepy music and my feelings from watching Kiss the Girls years ago or Silence of the Lambs.  I love romantic suspense and watching the clues slowly unravel.  What makes this better than just a typical suspense is the hot romance mixed in throughout the story.

Almost a decade ago, Sasha survived a serial killer, The Groom. The only one to survive and horrors that most of us couldn’t imagine.  She hasn’t been home since she escaped but is ready to face it all.  Her return stirs up both good and bad memories as she sees old friends and places.  One of the good memories is her old boyfriend Cole.  She left him with no contact like most of the rest of her friends and she regrets it.  So when he shows up at her family’s B&B, Sasha is stunned that he doesn’t hate her and wants to reconnect.  But as soon as Sasha arrives, strange things begin to happen and it soon seems like someone may be targeting her.  But it can’t be The Groom because he killed himself as the cops were surrounding him.  Is it all in her mind or does she have reason to be concerned?  Cole, now a FBI agent, is not leaving her side until the mystery is solved.

Till Death will keep you entertained as you try to guess what is going to happen next.  I absolutely enjoyed every single page of this book.  If you enjoy romantic suspense, this  is a win-win for you.  Sasha, Cole and the mystery around the Groom will keep you entertained from start to finish.
