Have you ever wanted to tag along with an absolutely functional dysfunctional situationship? Rowan and Sloane have got you covered. 

If you can listen to the audiobook, you’re in for the treat of a lifetime. Narrators are 🤌💋

This book skirted the line between too much and just enough. Usually I’m not squeamish in the least but this book just skirted that line. I almost put it down once but it was so good so I kept reading. I’m glad I did because it was worth it.

It got real gross a few times, but I kept going ‘cause Sloan and Roan were so freaking funny.  It was an actual romcom mixed with a gory psychological thriller.

I probably missed some warnings in there. Basically, don’t read this without girding your loins first.

Highly recommend Reader should read the 2 pages of warnings before beginning, it's at the front of the novel and easy to find

Good read for fans of horror, extreme violence, anti-heros, slasher novels, psychopaths, sociopaths, serial killers, dark romance stories of vengeance, torture, light BDSM, smut, rough sex, sprinkled with wit and dark humour. 

Reads like a Christmas Hallmark movie for violent  serial killers/ psychopaths/ sociopaths

Such a fun read! It was absolutely unhinged but also so freaking fun to read. Rowan is hilarious and their banter is so great. I love that it take place over years but the competition didn’t make it seem like it dragged on. The sex scenes were so freaking hot. Absolutely filthy loved it.

David was a shocker. I did not see that coming. And I’m excited and nervous for how this phantom will play in.

The mix of dark topics and comedy kept my attention for the whole story - this book was appropriately hyped imo. I love the little unhinged freaks Sloane and Rowan and their chemistry. I knew this ended in a HEA and was braced for the third act drama but I was glad it played out how it did. I also enjoyed the introduction to the supporting characters and the background building in this book for their stories in this trilogy.
