Ooooowweee this book was DARK. at first I didn’t really know how I felt but man I hate how quickly I was all for Cain 😂. I really liked how it was all wrapped up in the end. It was a little fed up but it made sense. Super excited for the next book!

Tropes: Serial killer, stalker, FBI student, kidnapping

Literally all these tropes get me hooked individually. Stick them all together, and I'll tell you now - you get one hell of a story. I literally DEVOURED this book, and I cannot wait to read Abel's book!

Where do I begin well, there is Kirby I think she is a great female lead character 
she's going to school for an FBI agent basically because she is forced to she 
is an amazing artist and had a douchebag of a boyfriend who is mentally abusive
and a mother that's the same exact way.
We have Cain who at first i was disgusted but i learned to love him, I wouldn't
mind having him as a book boyfriend amongst a couple others he is extremely
intelligent and an amazing artist and he found his match.
Now Abel I don't know how to explain him he is twisted, crazy, I believe
he is worse he has no emotion he's not hesitant he just unalives and does un-
appropriate things for fun but was one heck of a character.
loved this book Smut 4.5 characters 5.5 overall 5.5
Can't wait to read book two.

Twisted. Depraved. Seriously dark.

The story follows Cain and Abel: a pair of serial killer twins. Cain collects eyeballs and Abel thinks that literally any hole is a goal…any hole.

Ok I found my hard limits in this book. I DNFed at 120 odd pages when the homemade toy with screws protruding from it was brought to the party. I do love a serial killer smut story but the serial killer has to at least have some attractive/redeeming qualities. Cain does not. At all. Rape and torture are his personality and that is not my jam. Hats off to those that finished this, you’re braver human beans than I am!

Overall, it’s a no from me and I won’t be venturing any further into this author’s works.
