In a West Hollywood nightclub, Jesse Bombora is sure that the death of his friend and colleague was no accident. Now he’s seeking the help of his best friend, Eric De la Cruz to unmask the killer and prevent another murder.
Avid surfer and thrill seeker, Eric De la Cruz is guided by his inquisitive temperament to the seedy underbelly of the West Hollywood club scene. When a second brutal murder occurs he finds himself entwined in a gritty world of hardcore drugs, sex, blackmail and murder. While the body count continues to rise, Eric must expose the truth before Eric and Jesse become the next victims on the Venetian’s list.
If you like your murder/mystery books with a hint of underlying sexual tension, this is the book for you. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I may be a little biased as I know the author, but I couldn't put this book down. I urge you to give it a read. You won't be disappointed!
Massacre'ade Party was a thrilling read that kept me hooked at every turn.
This book has many great aspects about it: the thickening plot, the realistic characters, the out of the ordinary situations, and the splash of romance. With all of these wonderful attributes combined, LK Scott created a fantastic, addicting novel.
To begin with, the plot is excellent. The book does start out kind of slow, but once the pace quickens a few chapters in, it just doesn't stop! It becomes instantly addicting, and each twist and turn is unexpected. Each chapter brings more information to the ever growing mystery. Luckily, this author tied it up nicely at the end and all of the facts make sense, unlike some novels. When you reach the end, the ending does not come out of nowhere and is well planned out (the ending fits with the novel, is fully explained and does not leave the reader hanging or confused).
Also, the characters were realistic within their extraordinary setting. Most of this story is involved inside of a Go-Go dancing club, which means most of the characters have large personalities to match the setting.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book. There wasn't much I would want changed in the novel. Perhaps a sequel could make this into an expansive universal because I'd like to see more of Jesse (the main characters roommate), but there wasn't anything extremely wrong with the novel.
Five out of five stars!
I received this book for free through Goodreads First Reads.

This book had been recommended to me by a friend, and it was my first time ever reading anything from the author. From the first page to the very back cover, i was thrilled with the story. I found myself caring about the characters, and picturing myself watching over things in the dark corners of the world that's depicted. L. K. Scott has a powerful flare for story telling, and I highly recommend this, and other books by the author!
