senquezada29's review against another edition
4.0
An interesting concept for a book. I enjoyed it. The book had very short chapters of 1-3 pages each (83 total), so that made it easy to read, but it also made the first 1/3 of the book a little choppy. It took longer to develop a feel for or connection to the characters. I would have liked some more development of the main character, Deanna. It seemed a little rushed/forced to make her into an uncontrollable killer even with her backstory. But overall, still a decent book. Good suspense. Good balance of spice. An obviously well-researched story too.

This was a new author for me, and I was... unsure about this at the beginning.
It's definitely hard to rate/describe because I'm still "digesting" it, but I did enjoy it overall. There are definitely some tropes that aren't for the faint of heart, so check those before reading. But I actually like the way the author weaves in the mental health aspect, and I think she/he does a pretty good job.
Deanna/Jessica is our FMC and she has a lot of issues... like a TON. She hasn't left her apartment in 3 years, and NOT because she has agoraphobia. She gets all of her things delivered to her house and doesn't open the door until the delivery driver leaves. She's also a pretty famous cam-girl, and that leads to some of the angst of this story, but not quite what you think at the start.
Jeremy is her UPS (or some fictitious version) driver and has become enamored with her for some reason.
I'll say a solid 4 here and I'll be reading the rest of this season for sure.

This isn't what I expected... after reading the blurb, for SOME REASON, I got a sci-fi vibe

This thriller had me in a choke hold. I picked it up and didn't put it down until I was finished. It was fast pased with multiple POVs. You get a dash or romance sprinkled in, and I personally enjoyed that aspect. For it being on the shorter side, it was a well constructed and complete plot.

Its a great book just be careful with the triggers such as sex worker, pedophilia, murder, and suicidal thoughts. It's pretty fast paced of a book. It was pretty sexual based, but quite enjoyable.
