I enjoyed a lot more of the backstory than I did the actual current plot. And the plot itself felt a little bit undersold. I think that there was so much more that could've been explored, and I found the swap of the two serial killers' control was really interesting and a good tie-back to the beginning of the first book. I would've loved to see a bit more unraveling of the MMC. The FMC got over a lot of things faster than I expected her to, and she was surprisingly chill with a lot of the unhinged, illegal things going on. 

I would've enjoyed more of an exploration of her dark side, seeing her become more twisted as we see the "twisted" MMC become more humanized. Overall, I think this duet is moreso for the people who want a sexual story than one with equal amounts of plot. It wasn't really for me, but it helped me shape my taste and know what I want in darker fiction.

Very enjoyable, almost seems like both books could’ve been one with each being a different part. Finished both in one sitting each

I enjoyed this conclusion to Mara and Cole’s story. Definitely liked the first one more, but this was still good. I really loved Mara and Cole’s relationship and seeing them grow together!! They had  many very cute moments together.
