FBI Agents Chloe Fine and Nikki Rhodes are called to investigate the murder of a popular well-known personal trainer.
What the agents discover is a small town full of liars, cheaters, broken marriages, secrets and immeasurable lies. He was a serial cheater so finding suspects won't be a problem. Besides all the women he was seeing at the same time, he also has a wife. And then there are the husbands of the cheating women. Choosing just one is a problem.
Things heat up with there are more killings .... two women he cheated with. They have a list of all his clients ... but are they all potential victims .. or is one of them a killer?
Chloe is dealing with some personal issues. This case is bringing to mind her own upbringing loaded with deception. Her father killed her mother and was set on ending the lives of his two daughters.
The FBI powers-that-be are still looking at Chloe since her father disappeared.. and they aren't sure what really happened. Chloe believes that her partner is watching Chloe very carefully and asking questions she would not normally have done. Is she being the see-all and tell-all for her supervisors?
This is a well-crafted plot with twists and turns that feel like a roller coaster ride. The characters are credible and memorable. I like how Chloe's private life blends with her professional life. An unexpected ending rounds out a quite enjoyable read.
This is the first I have read of this author. Although 6th in the series, TINTED WINDOWS is easily read as a stand alone.
Many thanks to the author / Booksirens for the digital copy of this Psychological Crime Fiction. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.

Agents Chloe and Rhodes next assignment is in a small town where a physical trainer has been brutally murdered. An upscale of the community.
As the story unfolds the agents discover that the trainer has been having secret affairs with his clients, some of which have been brutally murdered as well.
Secrets and lies are exposed of the community cheaters. Marriages destroyed. This plays on Chloe's mind in her personal life. Will Chloe be able to keep the two separate?
The author's creative talent spins a web of lies, deceit, mystery and suspense that keeps you intrigued til the very end. I highly recommend his books.

This book is number 6 in the Chloe Fine series but can be read as a stand alone, this is my 1st and I was not lost.
Chloe and her partner are investigating the murder of a personal trainer only to discover he is not the only murder they will be investigating as the body count goes higher Chloe is also dealing with what occurred with her sister and father and trying to hold her life together fearing she may be under investigation herself... Good characters, good mystery did not disappoint. I received a free copy of this book but I leave my opinion of my own free will. Thank you to the author and BookSirens.

Nice ending to this series.

What an ending to Chloe’s series. After dealing with the aftermath of the incident with her sister and father, Chloe is attempting to get back to normal life even though things are anything but that. With the bureau continuing to investigate her father’s disappearance, she tries to move past it by working on her latest case with her partner. But while working on things, she starts to blur the lines between her case and her real-life and it starts to show. The twists and turns that the investigation provides as Chloe and her partner investigate, we find the pair gain more teamwork and experience working together as they talk through things, and we see Chloe start to confide in her partner. I was a little disappointed how Blake ended Chloe and her series, and how the incident with her sister and father really affected her, but she never really seemed to deal with things aside from confiding in her partner. It also seemed to end abruptly; with Chloe starting to get back into normal life and dating, while her sister somewhat disappears from town without landing somewhere specific. I enjoyed the mystery and investigation portion of the book – it was interesting finding out who the killer was in relation to the victims, and the reasoning behind it. I’m interested to see what comes next with Blake after this series!

What a rollercoaster of a ride! This book hits the ground running and never lets up. I had things I was supposed to do the day I started reading, but unfortunately, none of them got done because this book consumed my day. All I wanted to do was read. It was one of those books that you just aren't sure how things are going to work out. I never did figure out who the "bad guy" was, but considering there were absolutely no clues to their identity I don't feel too badly about it.
The only slightly negative thing I can say is that Chloe needed to tone down her attitude, but since her partner was telling her the same thing I don't feel as if I were too far off track.
There were some great characters in this book with plenty of action and some fairly gruesome murders. Thoroughly enjoyable. (Not sure what that says about me, but oh well.) I will be checking out all of the other books in the Chloe Fine series. You might want to do the same.
I received a review copy from BookSirens and this is my honest opinion. I would like to thank them and the author for allowing me to read and review it.

I was given this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This is book 6 in the Chloe Fine series. It focuses on the murder of a personal trainer. Agent Chloe Fine and her partner Agent Nikki Rhodes are summoned to the small town of Pine Point to sift through a small town filled with cheating spouses and figure out who may have wanted him dead—and why. As the investigation continues, two women are also murdered that have both had an affair with the personal trainer.
Chloe's personal life starts to mingle with the case as she learns of the lies, the broken marriages, lonely spouses, secrets, and endless lies—all hiding behind the veil of perfection. Beneath the carefully built façade of a polished, upstanding community lies a populace dishonest to its core, reminding Chloe of her abusive father who murdered her mother.
As the list of potential suspects gets longer, so does the threat of who could be next.
It's full of twists, turns and suspense with a slightly surprising ending though I'm glad for it and I hope to see it expanded on in another book. Enjoyable read.

This was the first book I've read by this author. I wasn't disappointed.
We follow Chloe Fine, an FBI agent battling her own demons, as she works on a case. The case involves the murder of a number of people, all linked through adultery. I enjoyed the couple of chapters told from the murderers perspective and the family drama experienced by our heroine added more dimension to her character.
A well written story, three dimensional characters and an evolving plot made this an enjoyable read.

well known personal trainer is dead and FBI agents Chloe and Nikki are investigating. Chloe has secrets of her own and wonders just how much her co-workers know.
The murder victim was married but as he did personal one on one in-house training, he had a string of lovers, so any one of them could be the potential murderer.
Then two other women are murdered, women that he has had an affair with. Could one of the husbands be the murderer. There are so many people that seem to be holding a secret.
Meanwhile Chloe is distracted with her own personal secret, the disappearance of her father.
I thank the publishers and booksirens for my ARC in exchange for my honest review .

Chloe Fine, an FBI agent, travels to Pine Point with her partner Rhodes to investigate a brutal murder. As the victims pile up, Chloe must not only race to find a killer, but battle the leftover nightmares from an altercation with her estranged father and sister. Blake Pierce has a way of writing that allows the reader in, to feel exactly what the characters feel. This murder mystery/crime drama is a fantastic thriller.

FBI agent Chloe, with her partner, investigate some gruesome murders in a small town, whilst she is distracted by her own part in her father‘s murder. She gets riled at the lies she is hearing during her investigation but she has her own sin to come to terms with. I found it hard to like Chloe but as she saw the irony in her own situation I can give her some sympathy. I found the pace and suspense lagged at times.

This is my first time reading this author, the blurb sounded very interesting and I’m pleased that I chose to read the book. It’s an interesting mystery that had me on the edge of my seat at times. It’s not overly long and so easy to read in a single sitting. I’m now interested in reading the rest of the series.

While I definitely got attached to Chloe Fine, I didn’t get the closure from the series that I wanted. All of the books were similar in nature and this one was good, don’t get me wrong, but something was missing. I still think it might have been the suspense. I did enjoy seeing Chloe fall in love and eventually trust Rhodes. I also felt that the killer was a bit different this time in terms of mentality. A good ending, but not a great one.

A personal trainer who is caught sleeping around with numerous women ends up murdered. Then he is closely followed by his mistresses. Just another day in a well off town destroying marriages!
Chloe and Danielle are both still trying to figure things out after the episode with their father, but they keep trying to move on with their lives. I can't wait to see what happens next.

No closure
The series is really good and a page turner. Im sad this is supposed to be the last book in this series especially because it's really not even closed. She gave a teaser of what I thought was supposed to be the next book but when I looked it up she said this was the finally. Oh well I guess.

Read this book on 8 July 2022
It took 6 hours in a span of 2 days to read this book completely
And finally the Chloe fine series is over and as expected the ending is quite happy and morally debatable but somewhat ok for me the series had been really good and this book was kind of decent
I will give this book 3.3 out of 5 stars

What a great book! 2 stories in one, so different, yet so similar. Fast paced at times, analytical other times, Agent Chloe Fine is an FBI Agent. Her secrets collide with her current case, ans muddle her thinking and one is aling for the ride. Totally loved it.

Curious tale, one that could of ticked more boxes for me than it did. Maybe it was because I haven't read books 1 thru 5 I felt like I was missing something or information that was important to the whole story. With thanks to BookSirens for the ARC.

Nice conclusion to the series.
Two comments:
1. Danielle came off as self absorbed and I wish more than anything Chloe had just turned her in.
2. I’m sad that Chloe ended up with some random dude in an epilogue instead of Kyle who actually had chemistry with her.

Agents Rhodes and Fine are confronted with the murder of a fitness trainer in a small cookie cutter town where everyone knows each other.
Most of his clients at least the rich beautiful ones were getting extra in home training that included a little extra entertainment. With all parties married. So when he’s murdered there is no shortage of suspects. Everyone seems to have an alibi but seem suspicious regardless..This book can be read as a stand-alone or as the next in the series. The only way to find out to killed this Casanova is to read this psychological thriller by Blake Pierce. I read the book as an ARC by giving by unbiased review above.
