Jinx
Your next unputdownable thriller that's action-packed from the first page
What if you saved a man’s life only to find out later that he’s a murderer?
Twelve years ago, a female soldier pulled her comrade from a burning vehicle. Now,
she’s still left with both the physical and mental scars of her decision.
Aimee has always believed herself to be the jinx, blaming herself for the tragic events of
what happened that day. Not everyone made it out of the explosion alive and in one
piece.
Violent flashbacks torment her relentlessly and force her to hide who she truly is.
Her trauma is even stopping her from progressing with her career and from ever taking
the next step in another meaningful relationship.
When an old flame threatens to reignite in the form of Jones – the man she saved over
a decade ago – she must face her troubled past again. But there’s a problem ...
Jones is accused of murdering someone she once loved, and Aimee doesn’t know who
to trust – her heart or the evidence in front of her. With her friends by her side, Aimee
sets out to discover whether Jones is indeed a killer or is being framed for a crime he
didn’t commit.
But it’s not that simple, especially when simmering feelings start to burn hotter, and a
member of her family is put in immediate danger.
Is Aimee the jinx in her own life, or is she finally going to break free from her hellish past
and start living again?
Jinx is a gripping thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final page. If
you enjoy fast-paced suspense with a hint of romance and a strong female protagonist,
then you'll love this standalone by Jessica Huntley.

Eva E.
"Jinx" by Jessica Huntley is a gripping suspense thriller deeply influenced by the author's personal experiences as an ex-British soldier. The character of Aimee grapples with trauma and the realities of military life, adding authenticity and depth to the narrative. This story goes beyond mere fiction, reflecting unique experiences and showcasing genuine emotions.
The story unfolds across two timelines—past and present—allowing readers to gain insight into the characters and the experiences that shaped them into who they are.
The main character, Aimee Price, is a former British soldier who was once hailed a hero for saving Jones's life during an explosion. However, that experience left her with traumatic flashbacks and PTSD, leading to moral dilemmas and struggles with confidence. Twelve years later, her carefully rebuilt life is shattered when Jones is arrested for a murder he claims he didn't commit. Complicating matters, the victim is an army doctor to whom Aimee was engaged.
Aimee must decide whom to believe—the man she once saved or the man she once loved—while battling her own mental health challenges and the resurgence of painful memories.
The emotional charge between Aimee and Jones is electric, like lightning ready to strike! The intensity of their relationship and their dialogues evokes both laughter and deep emotion.
