I felt the bonus chapter actually detracted from the overall story. The book was a good mix of the dark romance and thriller genres. If you enjoy morally corrupt and questionable characters in your works of fiction, you will like this book. If you don’t enjoy those things, skip it.

I predicted this book by chapter three. The only thing I didn’t predict was the surprise at the ending. It was pretty enjoyable and left me thinking about the ending for days after.
