This book seriously needs some content warnings šŸ˜«
šŸ«„
I would not have read it if Iā€™d have known of the disturbing violence towards infants/children in it. If you are a fan of being in shock/horror/disturbed then you may enjoy this more than me. I just donā€™t have the stomach for that type of thing since my first pregnancy and I actively avoid anything of that nature whenever I can.Ā 

With that being said. It definitely made it easy to visualize how much of a psychotic disgusting person this character is when you read it. You canā€™t help but be completely blindsided by the level of evil. Now thatā€™s by design obviously for the character and for the book to have that shocking effect, but just not my cup of tea.Ā 

šŸŒ¶ļøThere is also plenty of seggs scenes sprinkled throughout and while I havenā€™t read any of Hooverā€™s other books, Iā€™m sure her history in romance lends well to those parts in this story. For that, I am considering reading one of her romances to see how that compares to this book. I canā€™t say I enjoyed them as much cause I was constantly reeling from the fact that these people are sickosā€¦.

ā­ļøFor me this is a solid 2.5 star book but if you arenā€™t swayed by violence towards children you may have a higher opinion of this mysterious/thriller romance.

***MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS AHEAD***

So Iā€™m not sure when the bonus chapter edition of the book came out but if you havenā€™t read it then the story would be so very different and idk if thatā€™s in a good way or not. After being brought to a level of disturbance that I have yet to find in other stories, you get a twist that doesnā€™t solidify anything other than, you just donā€™t know wtf happened. There is no truth, not really. It makes EVERYONE in the story look absolutely psycho and horrible, INCLUDING Crew!Ā 

Thereā€™s also a handful of loose ends that make you wonder why those details even exist. The sleepwalking? The knife thing with Crew? The home nurse? Just stuff that could have been more.Ā

There were zero content warnings Ā about the graphic and honestly disturbing sexual descriptions in this book. I tried to bypass the first few thinking it would get better, but they started showing up several times per chapter. The author uses the expression f-ing throughout, which is excessively vulgar. I wish I had a heads up before beginning this book. The premise is so intriguing, but the content is offensive.Ā
