i liked it, but the romance was underwhelming. there was a lot of in in the start, and nothing in the middle, but picking up at the end, which was confusing. Also, it was EXTREMELY obvious that Sebastian had something to do with the murders. Overall, i liked the murder mystery aspect, but the romance was random.

I really wanted to like this book. The characters had the potential to be interesting. It had a zoro/femme fatale vibe but operating outside the male gaze. There was intrigue and drama and murder. And yet. I found myself completely uninvested in the characters. The plot distracted from the budding relationship and the relationship detracted from the plot. As a result both failed to resonate. When Anna and Kiki finally got together, I barely cared. I wish this book had been able to deliver. With a little more development or a decision to focus either mostly on the relationship ship or on the various mysteries, it could have been truly excellent.

I was really excited to read this but I feel like the cursing got in the way of the plot, as for me it was hard to follow. I felt the romance was ok, but I wish there would have been more. I do have to say the ending was really nice.
