Innocence Taken - Pray He Kills You Quickly (Damien Kaine Series, #1)

Two dead girls, another one missing, and a secret that will rip a tight-knit community apart.
When a missing teen's body shows up dismembered on the side of the road, Lt. Damien Kaine must crush her parent's hopes of her safe return. The parents are pushing for details and answers. Two things he can't give. The abduction of a second girl brings only one clue. The girls look alike.
As Damien searches for a sadistic killer, a disturbing pattern emerges. The more he digs into the community's history, the more missing girls he finds.
With the lack of evidence or movement forward on the case, a quirky FBI profiler is pulled in to assist with the investigation. Damien wrestles with disdain for the agent and an equally strong sexual attraction to her, as he deals with mounting frustrations.
Tensions rise with the abduction of another girl. Damien and his team are in a race against time to save her. But the case is about to take a frightful turn. What they uncover will not only rock them to their core, it will haunt them forever.

Victoria M. Patton combines forensics and police work with just enough humor and sizzling romance in her books. Her unique way of writing will have you on a roller coaster ride of emotions and keep you turning pages well past your bedtime.

I like planning murders. Fictional murders that is, so don't go reporting me to the police. Although there are a few people I wouldn't mind burying in a field somewhere, and most of them are in my family. But since I have a real fear of prison, I decided to put my BS in Forensic Chemistry and my experience in the Coast Guard as a Search and Rescue/Law Enforcement Petty Officer to work writing Crime Fiction. My books are a sexy, dark, edgy mashup of CSI, Motive, and Criminal Minds. Basically, they are character driven, have nasty killers in them, curse words and sex. All things that make for a good bedtime read.
I'm a mother of two teenagers. My husband and I are forced to share our house with them. We also live with three dogs Georgie, Gracie, and Bella, and one cat-Squeakers. I plot my escape daily. (Seriously, where the hell could I go that these kids couldn't hunt me down?)
My Italian familigia is loud and fun. You come to my house you'll mangia too much, beve too much and laugh till you pee your pants.
