This was a great spin off to Haunting Adeline. I think if you liked the cat and mouse duo! It continues the story in a different way and gives you some closure to Mollys story.

Over all I loved this book. I read it so fast and it was great at getting me out of my reading slump. The pacing was great until the end. The end felt very rushed. I would’ve rated it five stars if the pacing was a little more balanced. I will say though, this is definitely a dark romance. You need to read all of the trigger warnings before picking the book up. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a true dark romance with a toxic relationship at the center and suspense throughout with a balanced portion of spice

H.D Carlton is the queen of dark romance. This book was short and fast paced but it still felt complete. Cage was classic morally gray with a little golden retriever thrown in while Molly was dark and twisty but slightly hopeful. The plot was well developed and I loved the little references to the cat and mouse duet.
