A quick, fun, easy read. Even though this book is about serial killers, it is not a book that is meant to be taken too seriously - I enjoyed the humour and lightheartedness.

What I liked: the slow burn, the friends to lovers trope, the sweet romantic gestures and the relationship Rowan has with his brothers.

What I didn't like: how explicit and vulgar the sex scenes were (spicier than anything I've read before, and I've read some spicy books!) and how late in the book the main conflict was introduced and how quickly it was resolved. The bonus scene at the end was just plain weird.

I have no idea why I delayed getting this book or delayed reading it. The fact that Rowan falls for Sloane after saving her and devises a game just so he gets to meet her yearly is so cute. I loved watching their adventures together and while I may not look at a certain flavoured ice cream the same ever again, it's definitely a book I have come to love and will reread
