This book really was not what I expected (in a good way… I think), and I did not expect the twist!!! I’ve read other dark romances that didn’t have as much plot. This one is actually interesting, and I was invested in learning more details about the murders and killer. Now patiently waiting for the second book to be available at my library.

A+ for vibes, B- for everything else 😅
Basically a sexy Hannibal fanfic, but I'm not mad about this.

Every single description in this book was turned up to 11 (out of a possible 5), so while the writing is significantly better than many other romance and/or thriller books, it was overwhelming. Could have used some serious editing down.

Also the plot is really flimsy and convoluted, you have to turn off any logic and just enjoy sexy people spewing psychobable 😌

After listening to this tale, I knew I needed my very own copy.  I am so glad I got a beautiful hardcover, because this second reading was just as fantastic as the first.   I love Kallum and Halen!

This series.....just wowwwww. It's a roller coaster. And I read all 3 books in 3 days. They were that good. They are deeply philosophical and really made me think about things. It also came at a good time in my life where I'm doing a lot of introspection and staring into the abyss.
