I read this as part of my continuation of the "Mindf*ck" series.
"Scarlet Angel" continues with Lana and Logan's story. Lana is beginning to really fall for Logan, and she is even considering what a future without the need for revenge might look like. Unfortunately, she has started this journey, and she has to finish.
We all know what Lana is doing is wrong: hunting down her tormenters and torturing them to death. But I cannot help but feel for her and her story. She went through something so entirely horrific, and she has devoted her life to seeking revenge. She is strong, powerful, and smart. I want nothing more than for her to have her happy ending, especially with Logan. I am growing increasingly curious what will happen when Logan finds out who Lana really is.
This particular installment was fine, but not my favorite. I think it laid a lot of groundwork that will be important in the rest of the story, but consequently was not super interesting on its own. I am VERY curious to see more of the dynamic between Lana and Hadley.
I cannot wait to continue with this story.

I am seriously loving Logan & Lana's story. As the FBI is uncovering answers to what happened ten years ago, they are also closing in onto the serial killer. Even if Lana could stop, she doesn't want to until her revenge has been made, avenging the death of her family, and who she used to be. But once Logan uncovers the truth, she fears that he will see her as the monster she truly is. 

Each story is fast paced, and dark, but also sprinkled with humor. I love Lana & how absolutely strong she is. How she over ame the hell and horrors she had been through. 5⭐ out of 5⭐. 
2🌶️ out of 5🌶️ - a couple scenes in some detail. 

Tropes: 
→ dark romance 
→ contemporary romance 
→ serial killer h, x FBI H
→ forbidden romance 
→ revenge

Mainly detail points but i love

how her and Hadleigh are like business associates right now. like she was in the closet and i was getting real anxious on how things would go over. It KILLLS me how all the pieces to the puzzle are layed out in front of him. But it’s like he’s looking at them upside down. I really wan step in and like an piece it together for him ya know. I’m also scared to because i really want them to go live with each other in Greece carefree and happy.

how supportive Jake is throughout the whole book. He’s there for her no matter what. He was willing to throw it all away if that’s what Lana wanted. I think my favorite scene is where she dukes it out with the boogeyman.
