⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This book is SO SO good!
Declan is perfect! And he's also your new book boyfriend! Because we all deserve someone who loves like him!
This book made me laugh, made me cry, and made me throw my Kindle lol, but I could not put it down!
The writing is amazing! The characters are so relatable and so down to earth.
My heart broke for them both, but when they came together, it was so beautiful.
HC Riley is so incredibly talented and has a way of bringing this story to life!
I was fortunate enough to receive an ARC of this book, and I'm here to tell you this book is IT!
It's dark. It has romance. It has a stalker. It has all the good stuff.
So do yourself a favor and go read it! You will not be disappointed!
I'll be over here anxiously awaiting book 2

"Give me your dark, Give me your broken edges, and match them up with mine. Our own beautiful mosaic of light in the darkness."
This was an amazing story for a debut novel. Heather did a great job creating characters that steal your heart from the get-go. I love Echos take no shit attitude and how she doesn't just bend and bow to Declans alphahole-ish behaviours. Declan is the definition of a walking red flag.. I mean he starts off stalking Echo for months before he finally introduces himself ( not that she minds.. horror and slasher flicks are her favourite genre afterall and she's just getting to live one out). I'm super excited for the next story in this series.. I love me a second chance romance.

“I wanted to tear that bodysuit in half and run my tongue from that f*cking tattoo between her large, firm tits up to her soft, plush, dark red lips. Her body was calling to me like a siren calling sailors to their death, with her sweet and seductive melody. What I wouldn’t give to taste her oceans and drown slowly under her currents. Such a pleasurable, painful death.”
🖤Touch her and ☠️
🖤Possessive stalker
🖤Heavy triggers
🖤FMC can save her damn self
🖤Plus a HEA
I loved this and I loved Echo and Declan. She wasn’t oblivious or weak, she had been through a lot of sh*t and survived. Declan was a man out for only revenge, until her darkness caught his eye and he just could not stay away. What a great debut novel! I can’t wait for book 2!!
