After years of being beaten down and bullied as a child, game inventor Corey Farrow, the Zodiac’s Gemini, isn’t looking back. When his only option for survival is to kill Alan Lowe and take his place in the Zodiac Killer’s vicious game, he decides to play by his own rules.

With nothing to lose, he sets out to find a place to hide where he can think and plan his next strategy, but when his old friend Justin Finch invites him into his world, a world where he can once again reinvent himself with the girl of his dreams, will he decide he likes his new life better, or continue his mission to end the killer’s game for good?

Just when Detective Darek Blake didn’t think the Zodiac case could get any weirder, Lizzy puts out a public request to find information that will support her cult theory. Aside from bringing every nut in the city to the station and revealing a man who represents the controversial thirteenth sign of the zodiac, will it flush out the real killer, or will Darek and Bay be forced to bring the remaining members together for their next big move?

To me Corey came off as one of the more lovable Zodiac characters (not saying what he did was right) but he did have a good personality. He really seemed like he was trying to reinvent his life when everything just ended up going sideways.

Okay, so I was going to give it four and admit that the sex is finally getting to me, which it is, but then ooooooh my god, the final chapter had me SHOOK. I need to go to bed but need to start the next one.

This book was about Corey, the Gemini of the Zodiacs. Just like the other books, this book also starts from where the previous book ended.
Corey is now on the run after he killed Alan. What will happen when he refuses to play the game the killer wants him. With no one in his life that can be used to force him to do their bidding, Corey feels he has nothing to lose.
Unbeknownst to him, fate has other plans for him.
Corey decides to go and search out another Zodiac.
What turn will Corey life take?
This book was like a love story throughout until the end where the twist occurred.
I can't wait to read the next installment.
I hope to get a clue with regard to the killer.

Wow. My brain can't process words right, right now. Poor Corey, guilt over killing his friend, finally finds love. And bam, cliffhanger. Another great one. Every book I get new theory's. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book

i read this book as part of an arc program. This is the seventh book in the Zodiac Killers series. In this book, Darek is still trying to come to terms with how he wrecked his relationship with Lizzy, even tough he is still seeing Raven. Raven is getting more and more comfortable with Darek and it seems like they are in a real relationship. Darek still hasn't heard anything from Alan or Corey. Corey is now on the run and flees to Justin's place. Justin lives off the grid and believes in conspiracy theories and Corey thinks it is the best place to hide. Justin knows about the killings and Corey tells him he is going to find out who the killer is and stop him. While Corey is in hiding, he goes to work for Justin at one of his stores and meets a friend of Justin's who could be everything to Corey. In the meantime, a man comes forward claiming to be the thirteenth Zodiac and a leader of a cult. Darek and Bay decide to get the remaining zodiacs together to learn any new information and to team up together. This series keeps getting more and more intense. The ending of this installment will be shocking! i love this series and just when i think i know who the killer is, a twist comes and changes everything. I can't wait to keep reading this series! one of the best i have read.

This is the seventh book in the Zodiak Killers by W. L. Knightly [by the best selling authors Ali Parker and Lexy Timms] and each book gets even better as the story carries on.  Derak and Lizzy are still on the trail of the serial killer.  Just as derak thinks it couldn't get any worse, Lizzy puts her theory of a cult being involved in the murders by asking for the publics help.  This book is based around Cory, the Gemini of the group and a gamer  but I am nowhere nearer to knowing who the killer is as I was at the beginning of the first book. But you know what?  Drespite my general dislike of series, I actually LOVE this as it is so well written and the details make this storyline and the characters so beliveable and suspenseful.  I NEED to know who is doing this and really why. So I will be at the first in the queue to read each and every one of these books till I know!  I'm now impatiently waiting for the eighth book - Cancer. I received a reader’s copy of this book and voluntarily leave my honest opinion of it here.

Definitely recommended - get your copy now!

Just Can't Get Enough Of This Series!!!

Hold onto your seat because Gemini is one hell of a ride!!! Just when you think things are going to smooth out the twist in the road will give you whiplash!!! Corey is on the run after his run in with Alan and the only place he will feel safe is at Justin's place in Michigan. Corey just didn't expect to meet the woman of his dreams. Darek and Raven have gotten comfortable with each other but Lizzy is still on Derek's mind more often than not. When the remaining members of the Zodiac come together in one place to try to figure things out what will happen??? OMG the suspense is wicked, the loving is not and the mystery of who the killer is will keep you on the edge of your seat. Each book in this series will have you on pins and needles until the next book comes out and it is so worth the one click option. I've already ordered the next two and I can't wait!!!

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book
Thank you Ali and Lexy

Book 7 in the series.. Need to be read in order, ends in cliff hanger

Corey needs to get away and goes to Justin who is basically off the radar. While with Justin, Things are getting crazy. A 13th member of the zodiac comes forward, no one knows who this guy is or what he wants but he confesses in a strange way. Darek calls a meeting with all the living zodiacs to get everyone on same page and see what they need to do to keep everyone safe..

Corey meets Brandy while living with Justin and feels like he has finally met the woman he is meant to spend his life with but will he be the next to die?

This series just gets better with every book. I love thrillers and normally have a good idea who I think the killer is (not always correct of course!), but this book has so many twists, turns and sub-plots that I can’t decide who I think it is.

Great edge-of-the-seat read with well-developed characters. This time we see things mainly from Corey’s perspective. We still meet Darek and Lizzy, though I’m starting to dislike Darek due to his involvement with Raven. Oh, and what a cliffhanger.

If you want to get the blood pumping, then give this series a read.

[Alisa · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow!! I so love this series! All of the men bare the brand of their zodiac sign and someone is out to get them for a joint past wrong. So many twists and turns. Just when I thought I had it figured out a curve was thrown and now I'm back to square one. This is a fantastic murder mystery that shows the dark side lurking in all of the characters. Loyalties change and lots of hot dirty sex. Such a good story. I can't wait to see who is, if anyone, is left standing in the end. I recommend reading from the beginning of the series.

[Gerry · Rating 5 out of 5]

Provided with a free ARC for an honest review. Holy cliffhanger. What an ending. This is probably my favorite book of the series so far. Darek has totally screwed up his love life. Corey is running and falls in love. Even Bay's life is getting more complicated. Justin makes an appearance as do the rest of the Zodiacs. And then the big surprise ending. Wow! If you haven't already started the series, please start at the beginning. I recommend it.

[Jackie D · Rating 5 out of 5]

The Seventh book in the Zodiac Killers series, the mysterious twists keep coming! Deaths, manipulations, passionate encounters, secrets, and lies, its a crazy train of whats going to happen next?!
I have a love-hate relationship with this storyline- I want to keep reading to see how it plays out, yet I wish it would just end, put me out of my theorizing misery!
Great reading material! Not stand alone, you must read from the beginning to understand the intricately detailed evolving storyline!

[Jeanette · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is book 7 in the series, Zodiak Killers. Each book is better than the one before...well, they are all really, really good. This one does not disappoint. It is full of mystery, many twists and turns, more deaths, secrets and lies, manipulative actions, and passion. It definitely keeps you on the edge of your seat. I loved it!!! Definitely will recommend this one to everyone. Read the other books in the series to follow the progress of the story as a whole.

[Kelly · Rating 5 out of 5]

Omg the plot thickens. This book is about Corey, he goes to stay with another Zodiac Justin. I have a feeling I know who the killer is but, knowing this author I’m probably wrong. This book is packed full of goodness and as usual I couldn’t put it down. I can’t say anymore without ruining the story but the ending will have you gasping. Can’t wait for the next book

[Book-Lovin-Momma · Rating 5 out of 5]

New twists crop up in this next book of the Zodiac Killers series! Corey has a lot going on, as this is his story, including a possible love interest. Darek moves on but can't seem to let go of Lizzy, and prepare to see more surprises as the past catches up with the present! I recommend you read the previous books in the series to really figure out the flow of the entire story line!

[Karen · Rating 5 out of 5]

This fabulous addition to the Zodiac Killers Series is intense and suspenseful as well as addicting. There are twists and developed characters who are realistically portrayed. I loved it. I voluntarily read an ARC and this is my honest review.

[Taya Conn · Rating 5 out of 5]

4.5 stars rounded to 5. Actual pages - 254. As I went with each page I was wondering when the next person was going to die, ngl it was a lame way to end the book but onto the next, my prediction stays the same as per usual

[Maha Eshraa · Rating 2 out of 5]

Nice twist, or should I say distraction. Then, it ended with a confusing mess at the end. I think I just have to mention that the relationship between mai and Bay is ridiculous, and I really can't make it out.

[Susan Stephens Ballain · Rating 5 out of 5]

Can't wait to read the next one😁

[Joanna Kerlin Corbett · Rating 4 out of 5]

This series is great. I highly suggest all of the books. I was anticipating each one as they came out.

[Magali · Rating 5 out of 5]

Always a great series, well written with a huge suspense in the end.
(Attention: Spoiler of the book 6)
This part is mainly the story of Corey after the murder he committed in the previous episode in which he removed Alan before he would obey the serial killer and kill him. It's a rather complex character (like all the characters in the series) who could act badly and chose to act well until this murder that even if he thinks it will be the only one he will ever commit, him gave access to one side of himself quite dark. He flees to hide at Justin Finch's, who has succeeded in selling sports equipment, supposedly, but is part of people who think that everything is only a plot and is waiting for the end of the world, isolated in his wood. Justin helps him and he meets Brandy.
Darek strengthens his relationship with Raven despite the links between them and the case and is still attracted by Lizzy, the FBI agent.
This part seems to be a transition, but what an end!
I have voluntarily reviewed Advance Reader Copy of this book.

I am a big fan of this series. I probably say it every time. The killer has these men running around in circles and doing the dirty work for him. Very clever. The Zodiacs do not know who they can trust. They don’t know who is safe or where it’s safe. So much fun!! I would have loved more interaction with the killer in this story and that is why I gave it four stars. I’m still pondering the ending because it came out of nowhere. Shocking!

Ethan is an actor and is on his way to Pity Falls to meet his fathers fiancé. He has no idea why his father is getting remarried, this woman will be marriage number four or five. He is greeted by his step sister and he has decided to push some buttons to see if she runs off to tell all to the media. Whilst he in being a pain in the butt I found him endearing and couldn’t stop laughing. Meanwhile Nova tries to remain polite but is overwhelmed by his presence all while feeling a little hot beneath the collar. She just has to get through the next few days. He enjoys the freedom a small town has to offer and they don’t seem to be gossiping about him. His co-star Harley is controlling and doesn’t like him spending so much time with his family. Ethan is being pressured to return to LA, but he isn’t sure that losing his soul is worth it.

Gemini is mostly about Corey, who we met at the end of the last book. After killing Alex, Corey flees across the country from Phoenix to Sturgis. One of the Zodiac, Justin, lives there and he is not the type that many people would mess with. Justin lives on a compound with plenty of weapons and owns several sporting goods stores. Corey figures he can hide for awhile and be safe from the killer. The last thing he expects is to meet a woman and fall in love.

Meanwhile, Darek is still looking for the killer while trying to keep his partner from finding out his connection to the Zodiac. Bay is still being Bay. At the end of the book the remaining Zodiacs meet up in New Orleans and that is when all hell breaks loose. To be continued...

I was given an advanced copy of this book by the author. My review is voluntary.

Gemini... “7” ⭐️ Stars for the “7th” Book!

Holy Hotcakes!!! What an amazing release. Gemini is the seventh book in the Zodiac Killers series by WL Knightly. In case you don’t know, WL Knightly is the combination of two best selling authors, Ali Parker & Lexy Timms. I know I’ve mentioned this before but it bares repeating... Whenever these two ladies collaborate, they crush it. They go together, just like peanut butter & jam!

If you’re looking for an awesome series to dig into, I guarantee the Zodiac Killers is it. The entire series so far is a definite “one-click” that I highly recommend. Start with Book 1 & catch up at your own pace... Trust me, you won’t be disappointed!!!

I received an Advance Review Copy (Arc) of this new release & I am voluntarily giving my honest review.

I was given an ARC and here's my honest review.
Wow, this series doesn't stop to amaze me!
This book was a bit different from the others and I liked the turn of events, the new locations, the fact that the book was centered on more than one character, etc
Certainly I wasn't expecting this huge cliffhanger!!! I liked the end a lot, the meeting, all of them together, but the very ending...I didn't see it coming!!!
Now I can't stop guessing how Darek will ever find any justification to why he was in that mess with a lot of people with zodiac marks!
I'm in need of the next book ASAP!!!!
