 Eat Me is the beginning of a dark romance duet. While we don't experience any of the "romance" in this book, we do get plenty of dark themes, with easter eggs of what to expect in the next book.

Victoria (Tori) has lived a hard life. While we don't get into her past, we do experience some of her hardships in the present. Working multiple jobs to try to stay afloat, she is struggling. As she leaves one of her jobs, she is kidnapped and forced into the ultimate game of survival with 6 other girls. Each test pushes her further into a darkness she has kept hidden, and if she survives what will she turn into?

This book has some very dark themes and the way it is written makes you ask if this is a dark romance or a thriller. It is marketed as a dark romance, so I expect to see the "romance" in the next book. Kidnapping, dubcon-borderline, violence, are some themes we see in this book. Read the triggers.
