Released earlier this week - a new fun thriller to add to that summer TBR!
Thanks to Berkley Pub for the gifted copy in exchange for my honest review
IT HAD TO BE YOU - Eliza Jane Brazier (Released July 16th, 2024)
Book Description:
Two contract killers, each with a hit out on the other, must fight their growing attraction as they face off in an epic game of lust and murder across Western Europe.
When Eva and Jonathan hook up on the sleeper train from Florence to Paris, they think they'll never see each other again. Which is too bad, because neither has ever felt a spark like this for another person. But love isn't on the agenda in their line of work.
Six months later, they run into each other in the Hall of Mirrors in Versailles. This encounter is not by chance, because Eva has been hired to kill Jonathan. She's a contract killer, but what she doesn't know is that he is too.
Their meeting kicks off a high-stakes adventure across Western Europe. There will be tourism. There will be bodies. Eva and Jonathan might even fall for each other.
As the two get closer to completing their assignments, it becomes clear that they are also being hunted—by something even more dangerous than love. . . .
Mini Review: 4/5 stars - I've been picking up more and more books that cross over into the romance genre, and I'm not mad about it. This book has all the action you want in a book about contract killers, the pacing and suspense you want in a thriller, the intrigue of a story spanning multiple continents, the SPICE of a romance, and some truly unhinged characters and moments throughout the book. I had a blast with this and finished it in two sittings. If you're on the fence in terms of romance, just keep in mind that there are some spicy scenes in this one!
