I honestly did like the start of this one until it has to actually work a romance into the plot. I think the homoerotic tension between the two killers is a lot more interesting than his fascination with this one girl. I really don't enjoy how superior this guy is and the number of times he thinks about how easy it would be to buy her or physically overpower her. I know I signed up for a dark romance but that doesn't include daydreams of rape and only seeing this woman as a puny, inferior, sex object to be used until he's bored again. The worst part is I know I've met artists exactly like this who think their art is so transcendent that killing someone to use their bones in a piece is more valuable than an actual human life
Mara is fairly interesting but I think I'd be sad to see how she ends up in this so I'm gonna quit before I have to. Unless it ends with her killing him, that would be fun I guess. But truly she just deserves a nice quiet life with no more losers and no more heartbreak
