Most of the trigger warnings are about other people not the main characters. The MMC is NOT violent towards the FMC but he is her stalker. Though it's milder than Zade Meadows stalkercolorcrystals's review against another edition

Mention of: child abuse, child endangerment, death of loved one[s],
This was a fun read! Definitely felt more fluffy, for a stalker romance, than I'm used to but I loved it ^^

“So, he’s probably not a serial killer who uses the app to lure his victims.” I reared back. Was that what she’d thought? F**k. That was the absolute last thing I wanted. How did I fix this? I was half tempted to send her a DM explaining myself, but how would that work? Hey, Aly, it’s me, the man who broke into your house. I was just watching you through the camera I hid in your room, and I wanted to let you know that you are correct. I am not, in fact, a serial killer. Jesus Christ. I knew I should have argued with my therapist when she said it was time to wean me off the anti-psychotics. Clearly, they’d been necessary if one of the first things I did once they were out of my system was start stalking someone...
“I need so much more therapy than I’m currently getting.” I grinned, because same... Aly was f**ked up too. Hallelujah.
Navessa Allen's writing grabs you from the dedication 😲 to the end of the book (that epilogue though!) and you are in for a RIDE! The comedy between Josh and Aly reminds me so much of everything I liked about Butcher & Blackbird's Rowan and Sloane. And, if you aren't in love with these characters by the end of the book, then obviously there's something wrong with you... it's not them, it's TOTALLY you.😉
I don't want to give away any other spoilers than I already hinted at because I want you to experience this book for the masterpiece that it is. Navessa's writing is admirable because she takes dark subject matter and makes it realistic, hilarious, interesting, and well researched. You can tell how much skill she put into this book because writing something like this cannot be easy.
Her characters are unique, carrying their own forms of crazy, that you can't help but fall in love with. Like, am I really adding Josh to my book boyfriend list? Yeah, yeah I am. Do I wish there was a sequel? HELL YES! Am I sketchy of Tyler? Yeah, dude has some skeletons... he's got to, right? And do I need more Fred content in my life? YES! (Even though I have 2 mini-Freds at the moment.)
I don't want to sugar coat Lights Out though, it's a dark book. There are ridiculous sex scenes and tons of trauma-influenced sketchy behavior. But even as they're doing the crazy thing, they are still having mental health check-ins, so you laugh and the tension is broken. This is such a fun read and I already can't wait to revisit this world again soon!

Boiled down, this is a book about a hacker who secretly posts masked thirst traps online stalking an overworked ER trauma nurse. Eventually they get together, but someone dies, and they have to enlist the aid of their Italian mafia connections to get away with it. This book is crazy, but hilarious and filled with mental health check-ins.d_andrade's review

This book was amazing! I couldn't put it down the moment I started reading it. My expectations were blown away and I was pleasantly surprised with each chapter. A badass FMC was absolutely one of my favorite parts about this book. The MC was also amazing and utterly charming, even more so the more we learn about him. The characters were amazingly written and I love the witty banter that happened throughout. It was so refreshing to read and flowed nicely. Not to mention the complexity of both characters and how well researched and written a lot of things were.
I can't wait to read more from the author. My dark romance expectations have definitely been set high.
