Romance with a Bite
I went into this one completely blind. Knew nothing about it. However, I was intrigued by page one. It had a different feel about it. It was dark, but in a beautiful way. A calming way. The characters may be artists, but the way Sophie writes them is the real art here. I loved it!

I actually read this book after being in a slump for months and it helped me to get out of it. I will consider this a good read as it really intrigued me in many ways and i loved Mara and her confidence despite everything she has been through. Currently reading book 2 and that kinda feels off but lets see where it goes,some scenes literally gave me the ick.

Not only do I give both of these 5 ⭐️, but I can confidently say this is my FAVORITE duet/series to date! This author figured out the perfect balance of steam and plot, and had some downright funny scenes too.
Our MMC, a psychopath and sculptor, is involved in an ongoing rivalry with a fellow artist and serial killer, who “gifts him the FMC. What is mostly characterized as a dark romance of stalking and obsession, somehow manages a slow burn love simultaneously. It features a game of wits and survival, and also overcoming childhood trauma. The first book in the set has a faster paced plot, while the second covered more timeline overall. The accompanying music playlist suggestions were on point with this one, I truly felt immersed in this story.
Graphic: Sexual content, Murder, and Stalking
Moderate: Child abuse, Self harm, and Kidnapping
