This adorable murder rom-com was a great take on a spicy romance. I loved Sloane amd Rowan together, their competitive natures coupled with their inescapable chemistry together made them easy to love. I am looking forward to the second of this series so we can get more back story on Lark.

Fun concept, nice spice, LOVED the voice actors in the audiobook. However,

where are the cops in this town? They keep leaving what I feel like is a HEAPING paper and DNA trail at all of their murders. Naming your restaurant BUTCHER AND BLACKBIRD is a crazy thing to do if you’re trying to avoid detection. Having sex at a murder scene is a huge pool of DNA I fear. I wish there was more description dedicated to how they clean the murder scenes up to avoid detection.

A bit less based in reality than Lights Out, but still fun and lots of banter. Time jumps irked me though as I felt it took away from time we could have been getting to know these characters separately. I still don’t know what Sloane does for work.

“I would kill for you, and I have. I would do it again, every damn day. I’d turn myself inside out for you. I would die for you.”

This book is a bloody good time. A sexy, gorey love story between two serial killers? Count me in! In my journey to find my romance book niche, I seem to have once again hit gold - because this, this was right up my alley. 

This rom-com really is the perfect mix of horror and comedy. It had me giggling, gasping, and cringing - often times in quick succession. Full of ridiculous, fun, and sometimes downright shocking events as Rowan and Sloane stumble and murder their way into each other’s hearts. The characters are hilariously ruthless, yet simultaneously cute. The romance perfect. And the kills the right amount of gruesome. This book was a lot of fun, in all its bloody, eye-plucking, gorey glory.

Yes. Yes. Yes. I was sucked in by the trigger warnings alone. Accidental cannibalism say what?!? 
Serial killers hunting bad serial killers (think Dexter) who are hilarious, dark, and yet vulnerable all at the same time. Plus they’re both obviously smoking hot 🌶️

Don’t read if you have a weak stomach, or if you ever want to eat cookies & cream icecream again. 
Definitely read if you love spice, killers, and a weirdly hot romance.

Head the trigger warnings! 

Is this best book you’ll ever read? Probably not.  Is it book that takes heavy and often gross situations, and brings dark humor? Yes! It’s a quick read and decently paced. It’s fun and a little dark and macabre.  I had fun with it.
