Firstly, thank you to @sunnybabepr for a copy of this arc! This stunning retelling of Robin Hood follows our main female character Rylee. After years of no contact with her older sister Holly, Holly reaches out the Rylee in a cry for help as her partner Jeremy has been murdered. Rylee uproots her life and heads to the co-ordinates her sister sent her and ends up in the town of Eden. Eden is full of secrets and all the people seem to have something against her. Life seems to become easier when she meets Colton until all of Edens secrets are exposed.

This book was absolutely insane! I’ve never read much mystery so this was a perfect balance of romance and mystery to release myself into the genre. The side characters are fully fleshed out and each have their own story’s and baggage. I also loved reading about a female main character who is into computer science, it was really nice to read. Finally, a moment for Colton Archer THE book boyfriend. This book truly ended on a cliffhanger so the second book will be on my TBR.
