Sloane and Rowan are both serial killers who kill other serial killers when a chance encounter leads to an annual game…and a relationship neither of them saw coming.
This is easily one of the most messed up and chaotic books I’ve ever read and I loved every second of it. Definitely not for the faint of heart, and please check out CWs, but this was bloody and gory and gross and somehow also sweet and heartfelt and adorable and I’m obsessed. Rowan and Sloane were so wonderful, and the depth of both their characters alongside their chemistry together made this an unexpectedly emotional read at times in a really beautiful way.
I absolutely cannot wait for this series to continue, because I already know I will be head over heels for Lark and Lachlan, and I’m truly so glad this wild, weird, wonderful book/world/trilogy exists. Highly recommend!
CW: Honestly almost anything you can think of and more that you can’t—they’re at the front of the book and I recommend consulting them before you read!

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!
