I was hesitant to start this because I go in blind, but I knew *enough* to know it's serial killers. I'm always wary when there's a lot of hype about a book as the last few overly hyped books I really didn't like.
That being said, Slone and Rowan are perfect. This story was perfect. I just can't get over how perfect it is given it's basically Dexter in love. As a Forensics major I really enjoyed all the gory parts because gore never really got to me and it's hard to find gore without horror (not that big into horror).
Oh, and the spice! THE SPICE! The book really did a good job of balancing the humor (accidental cannibalism, hiding the engagement ring in the eye socket, dragon furry cosplay, etc) with the actual story along with the spice was just *~chefs kiss~* I was sweating and figiting a few times while reading this and my husband really appreciated me reading this book lol
I'm so effing excited that Lachlan and Fionn are going to be getting their own books and Lark and Rose will be getting their HAE.
The way this book laid the groundwork for the following 2 books and how *fecking* beautiful these covers are, I really just cannot get enough nor can I wait for the next ones to come.

The book overall has some dark themes, they are serial killers after all. But it was an awesome read that left me wanting more! I can't wait for the next release from this author!

The start of this was strong but ultimately this was a bit long for the fact that there was no plot. It is a really great duet narration on audio (which is saying a lot since I have DNF other audios with Lucy Rivers bc her prose reading annoys me. truth.) But if you take out the fact that they are “good” serial killers and all the gore, there is really nothing that's unique about this story. The characters were pretty 2 dimensional and the story was a pretty basic: he falls first and she has trust issues. The banter was pretty cute and the dirty talk was hot. But I think the audiobook got me to the end of this one.
