Rav is our NYPD Detective that is polished, well-spoken, dressed to the 9s and openly gay. He also happens to be the son of a lord so every chance his co-workers get they are ribbing him about it.

Jack is our lead singer of the band that Rav is investigating for the murder of a character Jack is closely linked to and he is reportedly bisexual.

Rav and Jack's situation-ship evolves over the investigation because Jack is Rav's number one suspect.

I will say I felt like the story dragged on a bit as there was a lot of over explanation and sometimes I forgot they were in the middle of a murder case because of the behaviors exhibited. I did enjoy the well crafted mystery which aligned with the story perfectly. I just felt like there was something missing with the pacing. It felt a bit slow, IMO. I also enjoyed the banter between the two main characters. It felt witty and swoon-worthy.

Overall, a 4 Star due me not really vibing with the POV, that is my only gripe with this novel.
