The Way We burn
I just finished reading this book and it was so strange.....
I liked the first half of the book, the tormented hero who is attracted by a shy, quiet heroine . She works as a waitress in a restaurant and for weeks he comes every day to see her. He is good looking so he attracts all kinds of proposals, but he rejects them all, he only has eyes for the the h ( Poppy) . I love this kinds of books!! So, they start dating, taking it really slow because of his past, it seems he lost his wife . Unfortunately, Popppy has a roommate which causes some problems because she wants the H. So, 4 stars for me until half the book. From here the book takes a strange twist and it goes down the hill for me .
Big spoilers ahead ! A more in depth review !!

The H, Noah, and his wife Carly are both FBI agents, he is a profiler, she is a cyber tech agent. They have a daughter. One of the criminals they follow kidnap Carly and their daughter and kills their little girl. Carly escapes but she is traumatised and after a few months she dissapears and the H is suspected by some poeple that he had done something to her.
18 months after, Noah is in this restaurant where the h, Poppy works , and slowly they start a relationship. One morning, after Poppy went to work, Noah wakes up and Poppy's roommate is naked and gives him a blowjob. He stops her and tells her he is not interested in her and to never do this again. He doesn't tell Poppy about this, nor the fact that the roommate sends pictures with them from that morning. Poppy finds out at some point and they argue. At the same time Noah starts to follow the activity of the roommate ( Simone) which is suspicious , she does something on the dark web, and he also follows her physically.
At half the book we find out that Simone is actually Poppy, she has double personality, But Noah loves her and he is concerned about Simone activity. He founds out that Simone, through web, lures rapists and criminals and they are killed by other criminals ( I skipped a little ). At 70 % on the book we find out that Poppy/Simone is actually Carly, his wife that dissapeared and she is out for revenge, without
remembering that she is Carly. She finds the criminal that killed her daughter and she almost kills him but she is stopped by H. He is send to jail. After a few months of tratement Carly is doing ok as Carly and they live happily ever after.
