«Convince me to stay. Tell me your deepest, darkest desire». 

The first book in The Souls trilogy had me on edge. Greatly written characters, it also definitely had the spice. I say it is medium paced as it takes a little while for the plot to really unfold, even though relationship wise goes a little quicker. I fell in love with Leon (MMC) and also found a new love for books written in dual POV. The plot was good, the character development was good. Overall good book. Good read. Will definitely go back to it.
