Safe to say this was darker than I expected - definitely romantic suspense. I didn’t love the way the mystery storyline was executed. Part of it I definitely saw coming. The romance was cringey at some points and I didn’t like some of the couple’s conflict. But in the end, their connection was really cute and I liked seeing the rest of the Eden siblings to prepare for their books!

β€œWhat are we doing, Griffin?”
β€œThought it was sort of obvious.” Falling in love with her had been effortless.
β€œYeah,” she whispered. β€œI guess it is.”

I devoured this book within a day!!! If you like to read romance with a little mystery on the side (or if you just want to read a good romance book) this one is for you. Most of the smut was fade to black but that wasn't a problem for me.

I love how they both tried to ignore their attraction for each other when they found out about their identities, but were absolutely failing in doing so. Griffin, that man has been whipped for Winn since day one and Winn was such a badass, I love her. Plus, their chemistry was just *chef's kiss*
