Most likely going to hell for enjoying this as much as I did. But oh my word did I binge read this with a smirk of my face the whole time. Dark, a bit messed up and yet somehow so funny. All morals out the window with this one

Couldn't put it down, even though I felt very voyeuristic through most of it.

This was such a light hearted, dark romance. I loved listening to it, especially the MMC. Such a great read for winter too. If you like dark romance, this is the book for you.

I did not expect to enjoy this as much as I did! Hilarious and fast-paced with a morally grey golden retriever mmc. Has there ever been a less problematic dark romance main character than cat dad Josh? I doubt it.
