I know you’re scared, but you deserve to be happy. So put some of that bravery to use for yourself for a change.
This was waaaay more smutty and a lot less murderous than I anticipated. It’s actually quite insane that I wanted the serial killer aspect of this to be explored more. Nevertheless a quick read and Weaver delivered a solid dark romance; I enjoyed the crazy journey and succinct writing.
Mind the TW’s bc the author brazenly holds no bars back, e.g. descriptive body gore,

Well, thank f*ck for the content warnings at the beginning, though to be honest, they partly got me to read this book as I was intrigued. This was my first dark romance, and it was a ride! I liked this book's mix of funny and disturbing, which probably says something about me.
The writing was a bit too descriptive at certain points for my ability to visualize things vividly, so be warned if you can also create very vivid pictures in your mind while you listen!
Overall it was enjoyable if a bit graphic and I mostly liked the main characters! I cannot wait to read the next book in the series!
Narrator Rating- 5 stars
Both narrators did an excellent job! You could tell they put production money into the audiobook!
