This wasn't even a romance omg I feel like that's misleading marketing. It's definitely a thriller and psychological work at best. I did enjoy reading it, all problems side so it gets a 3/5. The writing at some points is definitely beautiful if not quotable and the characters bring their best unhinged the forefront.
Greyson is... definitely a lot to digest as a Male Lead. He's not what you'll technically and tbh I think what he experiences is closer to obsession than it is to love.
Dr. Noble is the main POV for most of the book and tbh she holds well on her own. I do have small issues with how quickly she found herself being manipulated by Grayson but over all I liked her.
Can't really comment on the accuracy of the psychology, diagnoses and other Profesional jargon and the like but seems like the author knows what she's talking about

Dexter meets Hanibal meets Joker and Harley Quinn.
Under a different name (and different characters names LOL London Noble is a sexy-librarian-type stripper name if I've ever heard one) this could be your run-of-the-mill erotic thriller, and a decent one at that.
The writing was surprisingly good, a bit too wordsy at times.
The psychobabble was a bit much, with many inaccuratly used terms. And some of the reveals were a little too convinient. But I willing to suspend my disbelief, bravery this was just too damn fun.
