The Enigma by Jodi Ellen Malpas is now live!
A fatal blend of revenge and desire.
After leaving her fiancé at the altar and quitting her job as a Miami cop, Beau Hayley stumbles through life, feeling only resentment. Injustice. Loss. Her mom's death was called an accident. She's not convinced. Grieving, she becomes numb to everything except the constant, biting pain of heartbreak and hate. She can see no light. Until she meets James Kelly, a man who seems as damaged as she is, inside and out. And yet despite his twisted, cold façade, he stimulates feelings. Pleasure. He is a respite from her own flaws. A complete mystery.
And impossible to resist.
James Kelly has only one objective. Find the men who murdered his family and kill them all very slowly. But the web of crime and deceit leads him to Beau Hayley, the daughter of the notorious FBI agent who pursued him relentlessly until her death. Beau is not what James expected, and past the darkness that shrouds her, he finds a glimmer of light. Light is addictive. An escape. Beau might be the key to James's mercy mission, but with dire consequences. So he has to decide--leave her breathing and risk exposing himself, or kill her and continue his mission, still unknown.
Still The Enigma
Two tortured souls playing one deadly game. But who will survive?
Review:
Y'all. I have been anxiously awaiting reading this book as soon as I learned about a new book coming in this series. I recently read the first book in this series called The Brit and I was crazy about it. I knew Jodi Ellen Malpas would make this book, The Enigma, exactly on par with the previous one and I WAS RIGHT.
This book has so much darkness, brokenness, deceit, tragedy, murder, questionable acts... but it also has so much love and redemption and a strong pull for the underdog! It's rare I'd call someone like James Kelly an underdog, but the world has made him into the person he is and he's responded in the only way he knows how. The exact same can be said for Beau Hayley. Man, what a crappy set of cards she's been dealt. I can't imagine how I would put one foot forward after a fraction of the things she's gone through, but she does it. She doesn't think she does it well, but the fact that she's still living and breathing and moving and believing... she is inspiring!
This story was so good. There is so much to unpack after the storm I just read through in these characters and this storyline that I am still shaking my head about some things. There are some things in this story that happened that I NEVER would've guessed. There are others I wasn't as surprised by. However, the major surprise in this story didn't go the way I predicted in my head and I love that.
I feel like this story is left a bit more on a cliffhanger than The Brit was, but not in a terrible way. It wasn't a cliffhanger that leaves you wondering if anyone's alive, will they or won't they, but I am definitely going to be on pins and needles waiting to see how this story ends.
I cannot wait for The Resurrection. Gimme, Gimme, Gimme!!!!
