This is honestly one of the best books I've read in a long while! It was so good and you fall in love with the characters. Their love story is wonderful because they don't rush it, it develops slowly, naturally over years. This is one of my favorite books now and I can't wait to read more from this author!

This storyline really confused me. Smut was top tier though.

Rowan’s got a dirty mouth😳

I mostly liked the narration but at times was a bit over-acted 😂

The story was entertaining and well-paced but nothing special. The romance was interesting - with the serial killer element - but quite superficial
