I’m never going to be the type of girl that reads clean cut romance. It’s just not me. I like a bit of danger, a bit of spice, a bit of risqué with my flirting. I also think that I've discovered a new kink-Morgue spice. I’m now desperately trying to find other stories that are set in morgues, understandably, there aren’t many!
Dani has escaped the clutches of her abusive mom and boyfriend. Although her mom isn’t directly involved in the abuse, she doesn’t do anything to help her either. That is almost worse than the abuse, almost. Our parents are supposed to be our biggest supporters and protectors and to see the level of victim blaming from Dani’s mom, made me literally mad. I very nearly threw my kindle across the room.
She’s left her brother with her mom while she gets set up in Ripville, a small town that has a gothic feel. Everyone knows everything about everyone, but there’s a real sense of community. On the very first day she meets, Jasper, a real silver fox with manners to match. He’s daper, sophisticated and Dani can feel her loins quivering. There's instant attraction and Dani can’t help but be attracted to this mystery man.
When it turns out he’s her new boss at the Mortuary she vows to keep it professional, but can she?
A dark horror romance with plenty of sizzling spice, mystery and a quick read this is one for the fans of horror and spice.

I really enjoyed this read! It’s a quick paranormal horror mystery kind of read with a sprinkle of spice. You can almost feel the tension from Dani and Jasper coming off the page. The plot is very well written and keeps you hooked. I’ll be honest that I didn’t have a clue how this story was going to end, but the twists towards the end really kept me hooked. I think it’s a must read for anyone who enjoys a little paranormal horror or dark romance in their reads.

I wanted to love this book, but it wasn't without its fair share of problems. First off, it needed to be proofread. There were a lot, and I do mean a lot of basic grammatical errors, to the point where it was distracting. Secondly, it needed to be line edited. The author's writing style was somewhat jarring to me. I enjoyed elements of her writing, and even highlighted several passages. I definitely appreciate what she was trying to do, but I don't think she pulled it off. Her writing felt stilted. The dialogue was particularly bad. I don't want to give any spoilers, but I don't like what happened to one of the characters. It was too corny and that type of thing has happened in too many movies. If you read the book, you probably know what I'm referring to. I think this author has a lot of potential, she just needs to hone her craft more and definitely edit, edit, edit. I wouldn't recommend this book, but I would say if the synopsis sounds intriguing, go ahead and pick it up. It's a short, quick read and the plot is interesting, if nothing else.

3.5 The book wasn't bad, but I was expecting it to be a lot darker
I don’t even know what to do now… I knocked this book out in 2 days and just wow. It was so hard to put down…
