This was such an interesting book that made you think, “what the HECK is happening?” and “that’s very messed up.” It was like a romance novel and a murder mystery had a child named “sapphic love, photography, arson, & murder.” Overall this was a very horrifying novel with just the right amount of romance. Would definitely recommend.aboringgoose's review against another edition

The thriller piece was an absolute blindside. I did not read the description of this book before I started it, I never do honestly. So when
The last thing I will say, and the reason I did not give this 5 stars, is because there is that nagging feeling in my stomach that couldn’t help but be bothered when the kid who was in foster care ended up being the bad guy. I guess technically we don’t know if he was actually in foster care or not but either way, I hate that stereotype that foster care kids are going to grow up and be bad people because they didn’t have a steady home life. It just felt like an unnecessary detail. Otherwise, I loved this book and will keep and eye out for other books by this author.
