There are no words to express how much I adored the characters and the mystery. I had gotten out of a reading funk last year, and I started reading again with this banger of a book.

The book is 40-60 split between murder mystery and romance. I loved the characters in the book so much and I rooted so much for the female lead. Even the side characters were not caricatures.
