A review by poupimali
Deadly Affair by K.A. Knight, Ivy Fox
medium-paced
3.5
It’s a slow and fast burn.
Layla is a strong woman. She does everything to keep her sister safe and she fights.
Layla is a strong woman. She does everything to keep her sister safe and she fights.
Alaric is an obsessed hitman and a bit of a stalker.
Tropes:
Marriage of convenience
Insta Lust
Possessive MMC
Sassy FMCs (Layla and her sister Zoey who is particularly funny)
It is a good story with a lot of spice when it comes to it (🌶️🌶️🌶️.5 and 🥵)
Some parts of the story bothered me a bit. Some clichés are repetitive and can be disappointing.
In the end, it’s Illogical as f that Layla wants to kill a man. Wants to see what Alaric does for living. ok. wants to do. Nope.
And also the repetitive Wife Husband cliché can be annoying.
The audiobook is a dual narrated by Michael Gallagher and Kasi Hollowell (who does male voices particularly well).
Graphic: Toxic relationship, Domestic abuse, Murder, Blood, Child death, and Death of parent
