Cut & Run by Madeleine Urban
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
“Not everything needs to be planned…Not everything needs a why or how.”
Cut & Run is about 2 guys who were thrown together as partners to help find a serial killer. The police and FBI up until this point have failed to apprehend the suspect. Ty Grady and Zane Garrett are two agents with conflicting personalities and they start off at each other’s throats. One is rough and tumble, the other is clean cut and meticulous. They were put on this case because the last two agents that were assigned were murdered. It follows these two FBI agents while they try to track down this killer before more people are killed all while navigating trying to work together. How will they survive each other let alone survive the killer?
This was a very good and sexy read. There were plenty of funny and snippy comments. It was fun to read the back and forth between the two main characters. I chuckled and smirked and laughed out loud. Madeleine Urban and Abigail Roux are the authors. They did a good job writing as they created such tension between Ty and Zane. It was very hot. It was written in a way that helped us to see it from both sides. It added a good dynamic and layers to the story. Besides the connection between the main characters there was the actual investigation. I thought that part of the story was done well too. It was interesting and kept me on my toes. The whole MO of the killer was cool and unique. It was suspenseful. There were a couple things that bothered me though. One was there was a lot of growling that came from both characters. A character saying something in a growling manner or with a growl was pretty common throughout. I wish it was phrased differently to change it up. Also, there was a little too much toxic masculinity especially from Ty. It might have added to his gruff manner but it also rubbed me the wrong way at moments. I am not sure how I came across this book or how it ended up in my TBR pile but I am glad it did. This was such an enjoyable and alluring book. I would recommend that people pick it up.
