This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.

Wow, Laurel and Huck are back and this time they are dealing with Laurel's sister, Abigail, her father, Zeke, and the escaped serial killer, Jason. As they hunt down the escaped Jason, there are now new dead bodies showing up - all with blond hair. Is this because of Jason or a new serial killer?

Their investigation is complicated when the first blond victim turns out to be Huck's mother who he has never met but still has to be removed from the investigation.

There are so many twists and turns in this book and things that I did not seeing coming that I could not put this book down until I had finished it! And is Tim, quirky psychic, for real or is he a quack? He says a worse evil is coming for Laurel and Huck so can't wait for their next book.

4.25 Stars 🌟

It goes without saying that I am a huge fan of Ms. Zanetti. With that being said, I have read all of the previous three books in this series. This latest book builds on the foundation that has been previously built with the main characters of FMC Laurel and MMC Huck. The main focus is on Laurel (FBI Special Agent) and Huck (Fish and Wildlife Captain) and their personal, as well as their professional relationship. The personal - they are having a baby - and the professional - there are new murders occurring as well as an escaped serial killer on the run. Unfortunately, with their lives being so tangled, this poses problems when Huck is taken off one of the cases and is not allowed to be anywhere near the investigation. He is feeling VERY protective over Laurel, not only because there are a couple of killers on the loose, but because she is pregnant with his baby.

This book had a few instances where I was pulled out of the story and that was a new one for me. For one thing, Abigail is BEYOND psychopathic (which we already knew) but somehow she seems to be getting away with WAY too many things that just seem to breach the realm of impossibility. Without going into spoilers, let's just say that it didn't make sense to me the way she was able to pull off some of the events that she did - not remotely plausible or possible......but maybe that's just me.....

Laurel finds herself smack dab in the middle of chaos as one by one her team is pulled away. She becomes so very isolated and that bothered me as well. As things are heating up, she didn't even seem to realize what was being orchestrated around her.

But, there is definitely some suspense and drama in this one. The level of tension builds to wonderful levels as the story barrels towards its climax. There are several possibilities for the "WHO" when it comes to the murders. Is Jason (the escaped killer) the one doing these new murders? Can there also be a NEW murderer in town?

Also, there is a certain reporter who was SO irritating and annoying that it made me want to lock her in a closet - UGH - but it made for great reading. :)

While this storyline is wrapped up, we definitely learn that all is not over and it becomes clear that there is going to be a Book 5.

Thank you to NetGalley and to Kensington Publishing | Zebra for the opportunity to read and review this ARC. The opinions above are mine and mine alone. This book will be out for publication on October 22, 2024.

I love this series and I need more immediately! Laurel is such an interesting character and I can’t wait to see what happens between her and her crazy sister as well as her love life!

I was very lucky to get an ARC of this book, Thank you, Netgalley! Honestly, this series is perfection. It had me hooked from page 1. No surprise really, every book that Rebecca writes is an instant 5 stars for me. I consider myself to be her 1 fan....Fan girling aside, this book was fast paced, and had me on the edge of my seat up until the end. I almost screamed and repeatedly said oh fuck oh fuck.... ask my mum. Anyway, I highly hugly recommend this series and book. Cant wait to see what happens to the gang next!!!

This series keeps getting better & better. Laurel and Huck team up to solve multiple murders, while trying to keep a safe distance from Laurel’s half-sister, Abigail, a dangerous sociopath and her narcissistic egomaniac father.

Laurel & Huck's chemistry continues to grow and at the same time Abigail obsession with forming a relationship with Laurel grows scarier & scarier.

I could not put this book down & now have to wait for the next installment. If you like dark, psycho thrillers this series is for you.

I received this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

How can Laurel possibly remain this good when half of her family tree is…not? Oh, that’s right. The other half more than makes up for it. And this time around, she’s getting closer to truths that truly don’t want to be told. In the process, someone or something is getting closer to permanently changing how Laurel and Huck move forward in their relationship and life in general. Add in someone who is far too…obsessed? Intent? Completely cracked? I’m not sure. But that person is determined to be Laurel’s best and only support.

I honestly can’t believe the twists this author whips us through in getting to the heart of the danger and the mystery, but I loved every second of it. Laurel and Huck are on the right track, but they’re also in danger. They’re so close, but so far. And once it all comes crashing down, I’m left wanting so much more right now. Is a certain agent finally realizing he’s been duped? Is an opportunistic mean girl going to quit trying to destroy someone just to get ahead? And when do I get more?

I really can’t wait because I’m sure whatever comes next, it’ll be just as tipsy turvy in the danger and mystery departments as this one was!

Murders and twists and turns, oh my! I loved every single moment in this newest installment of this amazing and thrilling series. Laurel Snow and Huck Rivers are quite the couple. She is brilliant and he has all the street smarts as well as being a swoony protective boyfriend. I love them together so much! And they make a great team working together as do their FBI and Fish & Wildlife teams. But trouble sure has its way of surrounding them. Things get quite dicey for Huck in this one but Laurel knows and trusts him so her faith in him never waivers. As always her sister Abigail’s behavior is very disturbing maybe even more than usual, and now their father Zeke is back and boy is he your typical narcissistic egomaniac. Regardless of them, I truly enjoyed this book so much! I am pretty sure there will be more since this one seems to end but not really. I look forward to more of Laurel and Huck!

This book will make you sleep with the lights on! Our beloved FBI Laurel Snow and Fish and Wildlife Office Huck Rivers find themselves in a fight for their lives trying to catch a killer or is it killers? This story is face paced and will keep you guessing til the end.

I received an ARC copy in exchange for my own opinion.

I can't get enough of this series, I simply enjoy everything about it. The chemistry between Lauren and Huck and how well he completely gets her quirks. The way she drives into a murder and completely pulls it apart step by step makes the story even more interesting. Even the how the friends and family all play into it make build even more. Great thriller until the very end and hope we get more to come.

I keep saying this series needs to end, and I thought this would be the final book. Zanetti has a way of keeping readers enticed, so I stuck with it.

However, how often do we need to know that spring is late in coming (I stopped counting) or that Agent Walter Smudgeon had lost weight? (He went on vacation, otherwise, it would have probably been mentioned at least a half-dozen times more.

But, back to the story. This was a page-turner and if not for the fact that she's dragged this series too long it would likely be my favorite of the books. And though this book "ends" she's left it open for another installment, which I now hope will happen. Nothing infuriates me more than reading a book or series left open-ended. Now, I'm hoping there will be a fifth (and final) installment.

I love this series. The characters are so good and vivid in her writing I can picture them in my head like a movie as I read.

Laurel and Huck have to protect each from people trying hurt them from all directions. Are they up to the task or will they fail?

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Five stars for the newest Laurel Snow book! You Can Kill has everything you want in a romantic thriller. Intrigue and mystery, twists and turns. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the book. It was nicely balanced with the strong chemistry and growing relationship between FBI Agent Laurel Snow and her beau, Captain Huck Rivers, Fish and Wildlife. They are surrounded by so many characters during their investigation, it becomes hard to distinguish friend from foe. For a while things do not look good for either one of them. Rebecca Zanetti always delivers, wrapping up loose ends and providing an unexpected resolution to the investigation.

This is the fourth book in an excellent romantic thriller series and I’d recommend reading the first three books in the series first.

Book 4 does not disappoint. Lauren and shuck make a great team. Even better are a few of the twists. Fast paced; could t put it down. Can’t wait for book 5.

Another stellar addition to the Laura Snow series! These characters are so fascinating to me and I honestly could read this series over and over...which I already have. Laurel is such a unique character and I love everything about her. Huck is the grumpy, protective, alpha hero that I also absolutely love. When he starts accepting his love for Laurel, he's a pretty swoon worthy hero. Laurel's sister and father are majorly disturbing and part of why I'm fascinated with what's going on in this series. I loved it and I want more!

I love this series , i think i have mentioned before I like to get HEA for a couple in each book but this series is so good and each book their relationship makes progress .
The mystery in this book is interesting because you are not sure if there are 1 or 2 killers .
The relationship between Laurel and her sister is becoming interesting and I am looking forward to the end of the series to see how Ms zanetti resolves it

Another amazing story in the Laurel Snow series. I love these characters so much and I always look forward to sending a whole day with them. Just when you think things might settle down a little bit for Huck and Laurel they don’t. It seems like their little small town is the hub for evil people. While they are trying to solve more murders, things start to happen that will finally give some hope for the future. There will be a great loss but also a chance for healing. I was given an ARC through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This was my first read in the series. But I was still able to easily follow the story and the characters.

I love a good police procedural with a great whodunnit and well developed characters. Laurel and Huck were great together. They really complimented one another.

I also enjoyed the side characters as well. I look forward to reading the other books in the series.

I’ve read several of this series and Ms. Zanetti is favorite of mine for weaving suspense and romance into propulsive thrillers. The frigid temps in the Pacific Northwest are foreign to this Texan and I enjoy the different setting. FBI Special Agent Laurel Snow has family drama that makes TV reality shows seem tame. There’s Abigail, Laurel’s crazy, ruthless half sister. She’s dating another member of the FBI which complicates an already volatile family dynamic. Then there’s the father, Zeke, a pastor whose past is very suspicious and ungodlike. Her Mom is the only reliable thing in Laurel’s world other than the deepening relationship with Huck. He’s with Fish and Wildlife, has a great dog and their cases can overlap. The diabolic, evil forces surrounding Laurel collide in this plot with emotional and devastating consequences. The body count escalates as a killer hits very close to home. It was another case that had me scrambling for clues and guessing possibilities. I can’t wait to see what happens next with Laurel and Huck.
Kensington Publishing, Zebra Books provided an Advance Reader Copy (via NetGalley) of “You Can Kill” Laurel Snow Thrillers #4, author Rebecca Zanetti, publication expected 10/22/2024. These honest, personal thoughts and opinions are all my own given voluntarily without compensation.

Love the FBI Laurel Snow series and the fourth book did not disappoint! As Fish and Rescue Captain Huck Rivers and Agent Snow work hard to solve crimes, it is one chilling experience after another. Fast paced and plenty of twists and turns to keep you engrossed! Definitely a 5 Star!

Absolutely fantasic it had so many twists and turns in the storyline that it kept you guessing the whole time. The story had you playing the guessing game with some of the new characters that were introduced in this book and I enjoyed the characters from the previous books, the characters are strong, smart, and some of them very calculating which makes for a good story and I honestly love Huck and Laurels relationship it is evolving and changing all through the series I love it. Definitely worth the read I'm looking forward to the next book.
