I have two secrets.
One of them died with me.
The other haunts me.
I’m not sure if he’s a ghost, a dream, or my living nightmare, but Sebastian Lancaster seems to have sunken his claws into every aspect of my life before I even accept that he’s real.
A New York billionaire with far more things to be interested in than the poor girl renting his family’s vacation home, Sebastian seems to evade all the stereotypes I’ve assigned to him.
But there’s more to my stalker mystery man than he’s letting on. While I’m trying to rebuild my life after being given a second chance, he spends his evenings as the judge, jury, and executioner against those responsible for his sister’s death. It’s not until my abusive ex-boyfriend returns to finish what he started that Sebastian reveals to me what he truly is: a cold-hearted killer.
Monster or not, he’s claimed me as his own, and if there’s one thing Sebastian has made clear, it’s that he doesn’t like to share.
Will I be his next victim or the one who saves him from his darkness?
Prey Drive is a dark and twisted story about obsession, desire, and the lengths one man will go to defend the ones he loves.
I wasn’t sure about this book when I picked it up because a lot of the reviews called it confusing and beat up on the plot twists. I’m so glad I read it anyway because I don’t what those readers were talking about, this duet is nothing short of amazing. It’s totally different from anything I’ve read before: part thriller, maybe paranormal, there’s a serial killer but you can’t help loving him, this story is one wild ride. I struggled to review it because I loved everything about it but it’s practically impossible to discuss this story without giving away everything.
You probably haven’t read anything quite like it before, but if you have, please share because this crazy genre I can’t really name is quite addictive. It’s hard to determine who’s the villain (or villains) at first and the ethereal nature of the plot is part ghost story, part mystery/thriller. Reading this book felt a lot like a fever dream because not only do you not know what’s going to happen next, you’re constantly wondering if whatever just happened really did happen or are the characters’ minds are fracturing from the stresses of their lives.
Jovie and Bash are characters who pulled me in from the start and I just loved them more and more as the story went on. There were times when I wasn’t even sure what I wanted to happen so the suspense is almost palpable. Few stories will have you on the edge of your seat, unable to put it down as this one does. I will say that the nature of the reviews and the obvious cliffhanger convinced me not to read it until I could get my hands on book 2 because I didn’t want to wait, so I highly recommend reading them together. This story is immersive and magical in every way. I’d give it twenty stars on a scale of one to five if I could.
