Parker St. John- Murder Aforethought
A Cabrini Law Novel Book 2
I’m trying to write this review but I’m being distracted by the U2 song “Even Better Than the Real Thing” on repeat in my head because Murder Aforethought is just that, it’s even better than the first one (in the series). Parker St. John took me on a wild ride that I wasn’t even strapped in for. Maksim and Val are fascinating and likeable characters, I love them more than I thought I could. My recommendation to you, if you haven’t yet, grab Risk Assessment and Murder Aforethought now, then you’ll have time to read the guy’s Christmas novellas in The Rules Of Gift Giving, and after a short break you’ll be ready for Other Than Honorable which releases January 3rd!
Blurb:
A ticking clock. A deadly enemy. Can they keep their heads in the game when their hearts are already on the line?
Valentine Rivetti made a horrible mistake when he became a Marine Sniper at the age of twenty. Returning home with PTSD and a guilty conscience, he’s blackmailed into working for the mafia to save his family.
Maksim Kovalenko has everything he ever dreamed of growing up in a Ukrainian slum. As a notorious corporate attorney, he has the world at his feet. But wealth and power can’t protect him from the emptiness he feels every time he shuts his eyes.
When Val is arrested for a murder he didn’t commit, his redemption is a silver fox in a three-piece suit. But Val’s lucky day becomes Maksim’s nightmare when the mafia begins to cut loose ends… starting with them.
The passion between them is overwhelming, but can two solitary men learn to trust each other before it’s too late?
This novel is part of a series but can be read as a standalone. It contains an HEA and no cliffhangers.
