Born, Madly (Darkly, Madly Duet #2) by Trisha Wolfe


🌟🌟🌟🌟 out of 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Synopsis:
Duet: a performance by two.

But who is acting, and who is devolving?

A buried past is unearthed, and Grayson Sullivan—AKA The Angel of Maine—retaliates against the system who made him, deploying psychological warfare on the woman who initially set him free. Dr. London Noble probes deep into the mind of the killer she’s fallen for, searching for answers, as a copycat killer threatens their unity. Are they partners, lovers, or enemies? One final trap will reveal all.



*Received an advance reader copy in exchange for an honest review*
It has been a little while since I finished Born, Darkly and in hindsight I should have reread it before beginning Born, Madly. It took me a few minutes to reacquaint myself with the characters as well as the story in order to continue it. Once I did, I found myself immersed in the dark, twisted world of Grayson and London once more. I enjoyed this conclusion to the story. Trisha Wolfe focuses more on London falling further down the rabbit hole. She embraces the dark recesses of her mind and delves further into the madness that is her relationship with Grayson. He has been waiting for the right moment to strike out and finish what they started. 
The author shows a different side to Grayson in the book and also gives readers more information about his past. I found his past very interesting and it made
everything about Grayson's methods make since to me. There were moments in the book where I questioned Grayson's motives. I wasn't sure if he loved London or found the mind games between them thrilling and addicting instead. 
The copycat killer introduces an interesting element to the story wherein Grayson and London attempt to use their different skills to uncover the killer's identity. They each fight for dominance in their unorthodox relationship making for some interesting interactions between them.
I really only have one complaint regarding the story. I would have liked to see a more in depth timeline connecting the two books. The first one concludes with Grayson going on the run and London relaying her memories of her past as well as her time with Grayson to the FBI. I would have liked to see how London had changed from the end of that book to the point that this book begins and how she would have searched for him. 
Regardless I thought that Born, Madly was a dynamite conclusion to the story of Grayson and London! I can't wait for whatever dark tale that Trisha Wolfe will write next. I'm sure that it will be wonderfully twisted!
