š When a psycho meets a psychic, what could go wrong? Oh, just everythingāand I loved every second of it. š¤©
August Mulvaney is a psychopathic genius with a thing for justice (the bloody kind šŖ) and no clue how to connect with people. Enter Lucas Blackwell, an ex-FBI profiler turned professor, whose psychic abilities have made his life anything but normal. From the moment they meet, their dynamic is electric ā”: Augustās obsession meets Lucasās cautious fascination, and somehow it works.
Letās talk about Augustāthis man is the king š of contradictions. A killer with an IQ of 155 whoās also adorably clueless about relationships? I lost count of how many times I laughed š, swooned š„°, and gasped š±. Heās dangerous, sure, but the way he quietly cherishes Lucas? š Dead.
And Lucas? This man deserves the world š. Heās haunted by his past, struggling to rebuild his life, and suddenly finds himself tangled up with a guy whoās equal parts terrifying and irresistible. Their connection feels inevitable, like two puzzle pieces š§© that shouldnāt fit but somehow do perfectly.
The Mulvaney family is chaos incarnate, and I couldnāt get enough of their dynamic. Every sibling cameo brought something special (looking at you, Adamāand yes, still as whipped as ever š). The mystery/action subplot added just the right amount of suspense to balance the romance.
If you like vigilante justice āļø, quirky psychopaths š, and a love story thatās equal parts sweet š and twisted š¤, Psycho will have you hooked. Onley James does dark romance right, with a perfect blend of intensity, humor, and heart. š„

As was the first book in this series, this was fucking weird. But also oddly endearing. August is an interesting guy. Super smart, kind of funny, pretty autistic. And 100% psychopathic.
Lucas has psychometry, meaning he can see peopleās thoughts/intentions/actions by touching them or items theyāve been in contact with. He used this skill to solve crimes with the FBI.
The psycho & the psychic forever!!

These two make a great team, and the plot was fun to follow. Itās definitely insta love, though, but I feel like there could have been so much more of them dancing around each other at the beginning that was totally missed out on. Oh well! Still a fun book! The plot of these books is completely unbelievable silly, but

Onley definitely knows how to write psychopaths. I loved this story. I loved the possessive and claiming vibes. I loved how Lucas just kinda went with everything. I loved how the decided what love was. It was a great book with a great storyline. I can't wait to read the others.
