A truly captivating bloodthirsty read filled with so much charm. 

The murder mystery that takes place during this story was so addicting. I don’t think there was a single instance where I confidently felt like I knew who the culprit was. There were also so many unexpected reveals, afterwards it was fun then thinking back to the little easter eggs that were riddled throughout the story hinting towards them. I also appreciate that this story is a mystery first and romance second keeping the perfect balance between both things. 

Juliette and Alex had chemistry that bounced right off the page. As a major fan of slow burn, this slow burn was in fact hitting! They both had so much emotional depth to their characters and the way that they both interacted with each other felt so tender and natural. They had great banter creating such a genuine and believable partnership.

In addition to the overarching mystery, the vampire lore was my favorite part. I found it so intriguing and the links that some of the characters have to each other had me thirsting for more. I think it was really well done, explaining a lot of aspects but still having it easy to follow and understand.

All in all I had such an enjoyable time reading this and I just know these characters will be living in my mind rent free. The book left off in a satisfying place and I’m looking forward to seeing where the next books take us.

Thank you to the author for providing me with this ARC.
