Oh, this was a wild ride. This book is emotional, intense, and a bit twisty. I found Shep's character quite fascinating since he is a high functioning sociopath in a romance novel. It's interesting how the author approached that aspect of the story. The dynamic between Shep and Elijah is definitely unique. Elijah isn't scared away by Shep's diagnosis reveal but embraces it as something else to love about Shep. They just work well together. I mean, not everyone would be super thrilled by the present Shep gives Elijah at the end, but Elijah is over the moon about it. I really enjoyed this one. I think this is my favorite I the series so far. If a quirky but slightly dark and twisty romance is your thing, then definitely check this one out.
