It's so dark but somehow I can read this. Read the trigger warnings first but I highly recommend this short series. Lana is something else, you can't not sympathize with her... and love her spirit

The plot is thickening. Appreciating the criminology of it, as well as the complexities it brings to the relationship. I'm glad it's not just torturing bad guys or 'a hot guy and girl who have lots of sex because they find each other hot.' However, I'm still finding the relationship a bit possessive and lacking in substance outside of wanting to protect one another and finding each other attractive. I hope there's opportunity for them to actually know each other a bit more, and it looks like it's opening up that possibility.
Good cliffhanger.

Book 2 and I'm officially hooked on The Mindfcked Series. S.T. Abby is one hell of a dark romance author. Plus I love that she's added the whole serial killer/murder side to the story. 

I can't get over Lana Myers. She's a force to be reckoned with and I'm really hoping that she gets a happy ending though I'm not sure that's what will happen for her!!!

Of course can't forget about sexy, bad@$$ SSA Logan Bennett. Of course I like the side characters throughout the series so far, like Logans team but the bad guys are definitely bad. 

Waiting to see how this is going to play out. I love the storyline. I enjoy the "on the edge" of my seat feeling as I wait for the ball to drop. I think the author is not only skilled in writing dark romance but she's also well versed in criminology lingo and information as well as psychology and facts about serial killers and their methods and behavior. Which only adds to the overall story, giving it authenticity. 

Stay tuned for book 3 review.

I am seriously loving this series, and can't believe I waited so long before picking it up. 

It may be dark- following Lana who is a serial killer as she is out for revenge on those who wronged her when she was younger, and her relationship with Logan- who is an FBI agent who has her case, and is trying to hunt her down, but it's also fun- and funny. It is a great quick read, and I am loving every second of it - and cannot wait to continue the story. 
5 ⭐ out of 5⭐. 
2🌶️ out of 5🌶️ - a couple scenes in some detail. 

Tropes: 
→ dark romance 
→ contemporary romance
→ serial killer h, x FBI H
→ forbidden romance 
→ revenge
