Publisher's summary

When a serial killer strikes a small Alabama town, anyone could become the next victim—or the main suspect....

Ben Logan, former military, and now the successful owner of a private security firm, can handle just about anything. Well, anything except a run-in with Riley Carpenter.

When Ben joined the Marines, he never looked back, and he broke his best friend's heart in the process. But when a murderer targets his city, he's forced to return after a 14-year absence—he's forced to face Riley. He's not sure if he can make amends, but he knows one thing for certain: he won't leave until the killer is stopped.

Riley's world was destroyed the year she turned 18. A tragic loss and a broken heart left her wondering if she'd ever be truly happy again. Now, as a successful doctor, the last thing she needs is to have Ben back in her life, especially when she's in the middle of dealing with a new tragedy.

With a psychopath on the loose, and the town living in fear, Riley soon discovers she has to accept Ben's help, even if she doesn't want it. But as the two become close again, will past secrets and unexpected desires ultimately tear them apart once more?

A friends-to-lovers romantic mystery. This book can be listened to as a standalone.

Friends to Lovers Romantic Serial Killer Mystery

Ben Logan and Riley Carpenter were childhood best friends(along with Nate) until tragedy struck and Ben became a Marine. Fourteen years later, a serial killer in his home town draws him back to Alabama. This book has a lot of action, danger and suspenseful moments that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end. Wonderful epilogue and bonus scenes! Highly recommended!

Jason Clarke and Ava Lucas were absolutely fantastic in their portrayal of Ben, Riley and all of the other characters present from this series. The performance was perfect!

I received this audiobook for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased review.

Amazing As Always

Ben's story was the HEA he deserved, what he didn't even know he needed. Riley was the perfect compliment to the gruffness of Ben.

The Voice Actors Truly Bring the Book to Life

You cannot go wrong with Jason Clarke and Ava Lucas. Brittney writes a great military suspense novel; these two voice actors are the icing on the cake. I highly recommend this novel and the rest of the Hidden Truths series. It is romantic suspense at its best!

Well written and narrated conclusion

Characters were awesome and the multiple novel series closed up well. Recommend Brittney novels to others.

great book

Brittney did it again. she is great at keeping you intrested as well and keeping you on the edge of your seat.
Can Ben get past his fear of not being good enough and the regret and forgive himself to save the love of his like.

I loved the voice narration for the book. makes it come alive.

Great Listen

I read this years ago. Listening reminded me why I started to follow Brittney Sahin. There are twist and turns to keep you engaged in listening to this romantic suspense. It was also a refresher on some of her characters that are mentioned in her later series. She keeps you hooked!

a fast-paced listen that keeps you on your toes

A fast-paced listen with lots of heartache and twists and turns to keep you on your toes as all the crazy is waded through to find the killer. Amongst all that was the angst as I rooted for and urged Ben and Riley to get over their hang up and find their happiness...which they finally did. Narrators did a terrific job.

Ben and Riley

geez!!! It was so good to revisit this story. Ben and Riley were my favorites from this series. I loved this romantic suspense book. The relationship between the two characters is so great. This Friends to enemies to lovers. The story element of solving the murders into heir small town just everything.

i love Jason Clarke he was absolutely perfect to play Ben. Ava did okay, I am hit or miss with Ava and unfortunately this one was a miss for me. Now that doesn't mean that I couldn't finish the book. It was not terrible because she narrated. (and it could very well have just been my mood) but I enjoyed listening to the book.

amazing

loved this book when reading it but listening to it brings a whole new life to it . Jason Clarke and Ava Lucas are two of my absolute favorite narrarators. And listening to them you heard all the emotions. they did an amazing job with this. Definitely worth listening to.

What a Thrilling Ride

Wow! The Final Goodbye by Brittney Sahin was amazing and she kept me in suspense throughout this book. I loved the narrations by Jason Clarke and Ava Lucas whose performances were just perfect. Loved seeing all the past couples make appearances in this story and the epilogue and bonus scenes were fantastic.
