Painting with Blood by Dolores Lane (Author)

After escaping a dark and poisonous past, Jane Meyer, a sweet and talented professional painter, crosses paths with James Ambrose, a charming and smart Homicide sergeant for the Hunterville Police Department. It quickly becomes clear that theirs is a beautiful love story, written in the stars.

Fate keeps bringing them together, but fate is a fucking bitch.

In comes Alex Walker, a ruthless and deadly ex-Marine who spends his days as a composite sketch artist for the police. But there’s more to him than meets the eye.

He’s a vicious serial killer.

When a beautiful friendship blossoms between Alex and Jane, the notion that he understands her in a way that James never could is as destructive as a blade. And after a traumatic night makes Jane’s whole world crumble to pieces, she only desires one thing.
