Well ok, we’re in spooky season now! 👻 The dark gothic small town setting and spooky atmosphere in this book were so ideal for this time of year. I really loved the vibes of this one. 

This is a very spicy book and I thought the spice was a bit quick to start, but the way the romance built as Remi and Dane got to know one another, they soon won me over. Especially Dane, I am a sucker for a misunderstood outcast with hidden charm. 

The mystery/thriller storylines kept me intrigued, even though I did predict both of the big reveals. It didn’t detract from my enjoyment at all. I was just eager to see it all play out. 

The perfect start to my spooky season reading, I recommend adding this to your October TBR🎃 Book 2 Monarch is out on October 8 and I’ll definitely be adding it to my priority list!
