I know it's a novella but I expected more, this was so disappointing. There's no actual real connection and the "spicy" scene is meh. Why include a Jacob's ladder if you're not gonna make it a main tool in the story. 

Maybe as an actual novel, with more development I would've enjoyed it more. I am curious about what about what happened after the end tbh.

This was fun. I do have to say this is 128 pages and nothing spicy happened until page 90. The tension was fun though. This is a dark read so if you don’t like dark romance don’t read this. I enjoyed this, but I wish there was a little more spice and I didn’t like how it ended. The writing was good for the most part. This is a perfect Halloween read.

While this is just a novella and understandably short, it definitely seemed a bit rushed. In terms of the spice, it definitely was descriptive, without being too much. The writing style, while not bad, just threw me off quite a bit. There’s also a lot of unnecessary detail included, for example the focus on the color of Cara’s lighter? It didn’t really make sense nor was  it relevant to the story telling. I was having to re-read to remind myself of the situation. If the writing itself wasn’t so confusing and all was less rushed, this could easily get more stars.

 Content Warnings: Sexual content, sexual violence, blood, gore, body horror, violence, murder, stalking, toxic relationships, and CNC.

You know growing up in a town that had a lot of corn fields...I never once thought they seemed anything other than boring and creepy 🤭

We get instant obsession, stalking, touch her and die, and a lot of violence packed into a fun quick novella. Really hoping we end up getting a full length novel to explore more of our leading mans backstory because it sounds pretty interesting.

Really wish I would have recorded my hubbys facial expressions as I told him everything that happens in this book 🤣
