The fourth book in the Laurel Snow series, You Can Kill, is an amazing thriller/romance.
Women are being brutally murdered, and the number is growing. This time though there is a twist, FBI Profiler Laurel Snow and Huck Rivers will need to combine their resources to narrow down the suspects and bring the killer to justice before they become the next victims.
You Can Kill is part of a series and it is best read that way I have put the link to Rebecca Zanetti below

I really enjoyed this book. It was romantic and suspenseful. I enjoyed the ending, it was better than I thought it would be. I'm grateful that Netgalley and the publishers let me read this in exchange for an honest review.

This was another great story from Rebecca Zanetti! Each story in this series keeps getting better. I love the main characters and the plots that the author comes up with. The book keeps you right on the edge of your seat. I can’t wait till the next one. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys romantic suspense. My views are my own.. thanks for the ARC

I love Laurel and Huck. They work so well together. This book gets a little more personal with them.
Very well written, full of suspense and emotion. It catches your attention on page one and you can’t put it down!

A string of brutal murders is leaving a grisly trail across the Pacific Northwest—and drawing rising star FBI profiler Laurel Snow back into a treacherous case and a twisted personal drama she can’t escape. The first body is torn apart, blood and flesh discovered across both state and federal lands. As the victims multiply, a pattern emerges—each is related to past cases investigated by Laurel Snow, with the assist of Huck Rivers, Washington Fish and Wildlife captain. When friends and loved ones are targeted, things become even more chillingly personal. As Laurel and Huck team up again to navigate the gruesome and increasingly bizarre killings, they must also keep a safe distance from Laurel’s half-sister, Abigail, a dangerously clever sociopath. Ever since their father reappeared in town, Abigail has been convinced she must protect Laurel from his malignant narcissism—a scourge she’s sure they’ve both inherited. Huck is not spared either as a shocking development in the case touches his own life. With the murders, and the suspects, multiplying around them, and the lives of everyone in their orbit at stake, only Laurel’s sharp analytic skills, Huck’s deep gut instincts, and their growing bond will enable them to face the demons within and the threats without—before they’re next on an elusive killer’s hit list.
I normally love everything this author writes. But something with this book just didn't grab me like her books normally do. The suspense portion was interesting but Laurel and Huck just kinda got on my nerves in this one. Some of their interactions fell flat for me, which surprised me because normally I love their dynamic. I don't know, it just wasn't my favorite of the series. I know some will still love it, and it still is written great. I don't know, something just felt off to me.

Ms. Zanetti has done it again. This installment will keep you on your feet from beginning to end. The curves are like a winding road on a snowy day with blizzard conditions.
Will Laurel, Huck and their team survive? You will have to read and see. Brilliant!! Waiting on pins and needles for the next book.
Note: This book can be read as a standalone but why wouldn't you want to read them all.

I loved t but! I am fully invested in this series and the way characters are portrayed. This latest installment was kept me up at nights guessing but coming up with the wrong answers. My only issue was that the last 2 chapters felt rushed and I would have been happy with a little more time spent on a point of view from Abigail. #lovetohateher

This is the Author's 4th book featuring FBI Profiler Laurel Snow and in my opinion it
can be read as a standalone
Women are being brutally murdered across the Pacific Northwest , they all have
one thing in common - a link to Laurel .
Her world is thrown into chaos , someone is setting up her boyfriend , Fish and Wildlife
Captain Huck Rivers , as the murderer; an escaped serial killer is on the loose ; her father is in town ;
and her sociopathic sister is getting under her skin yet again......... this all seems personal to Laurel
just who is out to get them ? She needs to concentrate on solving the murders and clearing Huck
and hope she can get her family out of her life once and for all (fat chance of that)
This is another well written murder/mystery , fast paced , full of twists and turns and with just the right
amount of romance to keep a reader satisfied - another great read
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own

4 stars
The fourth book in the Laurel Snow series, Rebecca Zanetti delivers another exciting ride as genius FBI Special Agent Laurel Snow goes on the hunt for a new killer… this one hitting close to home.
Women are being brutally murdered in the Pacific Northwest, and Laurel Snow is on the case. But in a chilling twist, the identities of the deceased women have a connection to Laurel, and her loved ones are being targeted. And with most of her team out of town, an escaped killer on the loose, her father back in town, her sociopathic sister hanging around, and her boyfriend, Fish and Wildlife Captain Huck Rivers, being set-up as the killer, there’s a personal edge to this one. It's another exciting ride, written primarily from the POV of neurodivergent genius, Laurel, and I loved being inside her head as she hunts down the killer.
By her side, as always, is Huck, and the two of them are so good together. Despite their differences, and Huck’s overprotective tendencies, they are equals in every way, they respect each other deeply and rely on each other’s skills, and they’re a great professional team. Personally, they are together, happy and figuring out their future. It’s not all uber-romantic and swoony, but their relationship is strong (and a little bit sexy), and they are wonderfully functional. The romance is definitely in the background though.
This series is definitely mystery/suspense/thriller, and this one kept me guessing all the way through. It’s exciting and mysterious, and the ending had me madly flipping pages, with lots of twists and surprises that had my heart racing.
Though each book in this series sees Laurel working on a different case, there is some significant relationship development and build-up with side characters through the series, so I would suggest reading these ones in order.
This is a great read.
4 stars.
An Advanced Review Copy was generously provided by the publisher via NetGalley for an honest review.

I was excited to start the fourth book in the Laurel Snow series, and it did not disappoint. As I found the other books in the set to be, this was a well-paced and well-plotted book. The series premises has Laurel, a FBI agent who specializes in serial killers, returning to her hometown and setting up a satellite office. Each book features a new case, with an arc involving her previously unknown half-sister and father. There is also a romance arc between her and a Fish & Wildlife tracker/agent.m, Huck.
One thing that separates this one from its predecessors is the romance between Laurel & Huck is on firm ground. It was less tenuous. Neither expected to find someone that would be a long term partner. Neither had thought that they were capable of that commitment or were particularly interested in finding someone. This book has them admitting that they want there relationship to last and planning for a future. That doesn’t mean there is not tension or interest in the romance, but it’s less will they/won’t they and more how do they navigate challenges together.
Another difference is the main case moves closer to personal connections for both Laurel and Huck. It certainly feels like it moved toward the ultimate (presumed) conclusion of the series. I enjoyed the story and look forward to more.
<i>Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a chance to read and review this story. Views are my own.

This series has been a surprise at every turn and I love it! In book four, Laurel and Huck are up to their eyeballs in bodies and questions, with Abigail up to her usual shenanigans. There are a lot of problems they have to overcome and Ms. Zanetti is a champion at resolving them in a believable manner. It's scary to think there are really people out there like Abigail, Zeke and Jason. I look forward to the next book and the continuing development of Laurel and Huck's relationship. Ms. Zanetti is one of my favorite authors and I love all her different series across several genres. Highly recommended.

This series just gets better and better! Special Agent Laurel Snow and Captain Huck Rivers are two of my absolute favorites. I am so happy to have read this new installment, but now the wait for the next one is on! Five thrilling stars for this page-turner.
Jason Abbott has escaped from prison and women are dying. Coincidence? That's what Special Agent Laurel Snow is tasked with finding out in the 4th book in this amazing series. Captain Rivers is there to investigate the case with her, but there are a lot of personal connections in this one. Of course, Laurel's sister, Abigail Caine, is also there to step in where she is very much not needed.
I have a lot to say about this one, but I will be giving away too much. Huck and Laurel's relationship continues to progress, and her sister is still trying to develop a relationship with her. Laurel's team is of course there for her, but they are dealing with their own issues in this installment. My advice to you when you start this one is: buckle up - it is a bumpy ride!
I am so excited to see where this series goes next. Some things for Laurel and Huck have changed for them by the end of this one, and it broke my heart. But they are determined to move forward. I absolutely adore them.
Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Publishing for the opportunity to read this one! I highly recommend this whole series. This one is out now!

I'd like to thank Netgalley and Kensington Publishing | Zebra for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I didn't realize this book was in a series but I was able to read it as a stand alone. I really did like it though so I should probably pick up the first three.
I love suspense and thriller books! This one has so many twists and so many serial killers! Also, throw in a little romance. Laurel is an FBI agent in the Pacific Northwest who is faced with 3 murders to solve. Along with her boyfriend, Huck who's a Fishing and Games officer. I love the relationship between these two. With the return of Laurel's biological father and her certifiable sister there is a lot going on in this book, which adds to the suspense.
Great read!

I love this series. Laurel and Huck go through a lot and their relationship is growing stronger. Laurel is brilliant and not your standard character. Huck is down-to-earth and someone who can be relied on.

Another good book in this series. You get to see her Dad and sister finally brought to justice but not without Laurel and Hank paying a high price as they solve another series of murders. I love this series.

I’ve read many books by this author, but I hadn’t picked up her Laurel Snow Thriller series yet. While I prefer this author’s paranormal romance, this was a solid thriller with some romance. There are a lot of twists and a serial killer to track down. Overall, a decent and quick read.

FBI agent Laurel Snow and boyfriend, Fish and Wildlife Captain, Huck Rivers, along with both departments, work diligently to find the person responsible for the murders of 3 women. The scenes were so descriptive that I could feel the cold of the Pacific Northwest in the dead of winter. The characters were so well described that I felt as if I knew them. The story moved along quickly until the exciting climax. #NetGalley #YouCanKill

You Can Kill by Rebecca Zanetti
Laurel Snow series
You definitely don't want to move to Genesis Valley. Although I'm pretty sure all the bad things happen because of people in Special Agent Laurel Snows life. Obviously her sister is certifiable and her father is a narcissist and rapist, likely murderer. We're introduced to a bevy of additional people in this book. We get to see the relationship between Laurel and Huck grow stronger. There is a lot going on with new murders eerily similar, but not quite to the Abbottcase. Buckle in, it's a bumpy chaotic ride to find the killer.

A serial killer has emerged and overwhellming evidence points to Huck being the killer. Laurel must use her investigative skills to make sense of the evidence before Huck is charged with murder. Does Huck truly love her or is Laurel one of his next targets? You Can Kill takes twists and turns as the characters' lives intertwine. Highly recommend reading this series.
