Questioning my morals and my sanity, because this is a story I didn't expect to love... but absolutely did.

The story is dark, twisted, haunting, emotional, entertaining, thrilling, and spicy... and the ending 😩 

I inhaled this book, the characters, and all of their flaws.
I enjoyed the variation on the POVs, although the story is mainly told from dual POV of our MCs. 

This is my first read for this author, but I will definitely be checking out some of Harleigh's other books. 

Warning: the book is VERY dark romance/thriller, so check all content warnings before reading.

4.0

First and foremost, this is a horror with spicy/thriller elements in it, so be sure to check your triggers. There is on page tragedy, and at times it is just gut wrenching. That being said, this gave off Hannibal Lector vibes (without the appetite) as we follow a reporter while she interviews an inmate with an intense record. There were moments that felt slow, but the intensity of the character's background stories, and the way they come together through angsty/heartbreaking moments was worth the read.
