Sweetheart | Chelsea Cain
With Heartsick, Chelsea Cain took the crime world by storm, introducing two of the most compelling characters in decades: serial killer Gretchen Lowell and her obsessed pursuer Portland Detective Archie Sheridan. The book spent four weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and garnered rave reviews around the world. But the riveting story of Archie and Gretchen was left unfinished, and now Chelsea Cain picks up the tale again.When the body of a young woman is discovered in Portland's Forest Park, Archie is reminded of the last time they found a body there, more than a decade ago: it turned out to be the Beauty Killer's first victim, and Archie's first case. This body can't be one of Gretchen'sshe's in prisonbut after help from reporter Susan Ward uncovers the dead woman's identity, it turns into another big case. Trouble is, Archie can't focus on the new investigation because the Beauty Killer case has exploded: Gretchen Lowell has escaped from prison.Archie hadn't seen her in two months; he'd moved back in with his family and sworn off visiting her. Though it should feel like progress, he actually feels worse. The news of her escape spreads like wildfire, but secretly, he's relieved. He knows he's the only one who can catch her, and in fact, he has a plan to get out from under her thumb once and for all.Chelsea Cain has topped her own bestselling debut thriller with this unputdownable, unpredictable, edge-of-your-seat read.

Portland detective Archie Sheridan, the former head of the Beauty Killer Task Force, hunted Gretchen Lowell for years before she kidnapped him, tortured him, and then let him go. Now that she is behind bars, Archie is finally piecing his life back together. He's returned home to his ex-wife and their two children. But no matter how hard Archie tries, he just can't stop thinking about Gretchen!

Second book in this series. I read it pretty quickly and it had me wanting to know what happens. But man, I wanted to take Archie, the MC, and just shake him sometimes til he came to his senses, even though I know it probably wouldn't have helped.

JoScho Glad you are enjoying it and continuing with the series! ❤️❤️❤️ 5y
tracey38 @JoScho I am! I found the rest of the series on Scribd. I want to find out what happens to each of the characters. 5y

Waiting half the day for employee health and HR for the new job I start later this month was a pain. I also lost my car in the parking garage and cried. I just want to lay down with a book.. I read this one while waiting.

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Oh no!! I‘m so sorry ❤️❤️❤️ 5y
tracey38 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I walked that parking garage for 30 minutes. Should have taken a picture as I got a bunch of ateps in. I hate huge hospital campuses. 5y

Sneaking in the final chapters of this one before heading off to visit friends.

Cinfhen How‘s that ankle??? 5y
valeriegeary @Cinfhen Ugh. Every day it feels a little better. I'm able to hobble around slowly but not for very long. It still hurts and feels really instable. I'm still resting as much as I can.... Starting to do some gentle exercises. The swelling is going down and bruises are looking wonderfully gnarly! 😄 Thanks for thinking of me. 🤗 5y
Cinfhen Im sorry ☹️my son hurt his ankle the day before Thanksgiving and he‘s still on shaky ground 😩it just takes time, and frozen peas😉 best wishes for a full recovery xx Happy 2019 5y

@robinb thank you so so much for the generous and wonderful package that I got to tear into! You‘ve always been so warm and kind. Litsy is a better place with people like you! Litsy has been a wonderful place to share the love of reading but also having the privilege of talking with some amazing Littens (too many to mention). Without Litsy, I‘d still feel like a nerd with my nose in a book all the time. Now, I rock it like a Super Star! #litsylove

The plot thickens. This series is so freaking intense. My body was tensed and stressed while reading these books. That doesn't happen very often!

I think I might have like this one better than the first in this series. The sick and twisted relationship (?) between Archie and Gretchen has me sucked in, waiting to see what will happen next. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Bria Omg @Liberty this is my fav thriller series of all time! Nothing tops these books in its genre...maybe Thomas Harris's books but it's too close to call 😍 6y

RiotMom @penpal1016 it really takes on the flavor of whatever you prepare it with, so it's super versatile. I like to press all of the water out of it, toss it with cornstarch, salt, pepper, garlic and cornmeal and then pan fry it and add it to all sorts of stuff! 7y

Last book of 2016! Managed to finish this in the afternoon and enjoyed it a lot, though maybe not as much as heartsick. Still so effed up and creepy though (in a good way). Happy new year everyone! 🎉

I was so addicted I immediately listened to the next book in the series - and while good it was WAY more intense than I'd anticipated. Might need to wait a bit before hitting up the next book! TW: rape

jmkeene This is my favorite in the series. Gretchen is terrifying! 8y
