Did Not Finish Killing Sarai (In the Company of Killers book 1) by J. A. Redmerski.
I have tried. I really did, but..
Killing Sarai starts out fine, not absorbingly amazing but not too bad either.
Unfortunately, I am neither expecting nor looking forward to first person narratives from both the male and female protagonists. So you can imagine how flabbergasted I am when I come to a chapter where the point of view swaps from Sarai to Victor. Gosh! That is uncalled for and totally kills off whatever remains of my interest in the story.
I try to read the book as it is. I really do. But.. at 30% of the story, enough is enough. I may pick the book up to continue where I leave off some day. One day. Perhaps..

Sarai was only fourteen when her mother uprooted her to live in Mexico with a notorious drug lord. Over time she forgot what it was like to live a normal life, but she never let go of her hope to escape the compound where she has been held for the past nine years.
Victor is a cold-blooded assassin who, like Sarai, has known only death and violence since he was a young boy. When Victor arrives at the compound to collect details and payment for a hit, Sarai sees him as her only opportunity for escape. But things don’t go as planned and instead of finding transport back to Tucson, she finds herself free from one dangerous man and caught in the clutches of another.
While on the run, Victor strays from his primal nature as he succumbs to his conscience and resolves to help Sarai. As they grow closer, he finds himself willing to risk everything to keep her alive; even his relationship with his devoted brother and liaison, Niklas, who now like everyone else wants Sarai dead.
As Victor and Sarai slowly build a trust, the differences between them seem to lessen, and an unlikely attraction intensifies. But Victor’s brutal skills and experience may not be enough in the end to save her, as the power she unknowingly holds over him may ultimately be what gets her killed.
This is their story…
