Maybe it’s because I accidentally had the plot twist spoiled but I didn’t really enjoy this book. I eventually started skipping through the sex scenes, not because I’m a prude but because the idea of sex married with murder didn’t sit well with me. I can appreciate the attempt at including a mental health/psych aspect but it just felt really surface level.
Love this genre but whether or not I’ll be giving H.D. Carlton another try is still up in the air.

Sibby‘s backstory is truly saddening and society has failed her. I honestly did not expect the twist - it was probably predicted by some, but I just did not see it coming at all. I enjoy her character more than I did with Addie - seeing continuations with Sibbys story is something I look forward to.

Wow just wow. So much happened in this book and i can’t wait to read more about Sibby and Zade! The spice in this book was insane and to think it was all in Sibbys head was a massive plot twist

Yeah, I don’t really understand the hype... I thought we would get a deeper backstory for Sibby, but what we actually received was mostly smut. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy smut, but if 120 pages are basically just that and only 24 pages are dedicated to the story, it’s not enough for me. There was so much potential for a really good story about her and more scenes with our other MCs from Hunting and Haunting Adeline, which we didn’t get. She deserved way better.
