The book description says it’s a cross between Dexter and 50 shades. There is no 50 shades. This is an encyclopedic look into the life of a cam girl with Dexter-like tendencies. While there are a lot of explanations of the acts she does as a cam girl, they are delivered almost clinically with no spice. As far as a thriller, the internal dialogue of the main character made it all pretty predictable. It was a fine book. Definitely different, just wish there was more mystery and tension.

This was definitely not what I expected going in. I'm not sure what exactly I was imagining, but the writing style totally took me off guard. It's just.. so casual.

Despite that, I enjoyed this book for what it was. A nice thriller erotica.

I enjoyed what others seem to not. I thought the descriptive writing of Deanna's sex work was intriguing and fun to read. As well, my favorite part of the story was the romance. (Though, what that says about the book... the fact my favorite part of this thriller was its romance... eh...) 

I'm considering continuing the series just to see the romance between her and Jeremy develop more. We'll see.
