Let me just say that I did enjoy this book but for some reason, it took me a while to get into it. Not because of the detailed gore but because it’s a very, very slow burn. I was expecting a bit more I guess.
I really did like Rowan’s and Sloane’s relationship. Their banter between each other was funny and cute. I loved that Rowan was rotting for Sloan and just patiently waiting for her to fall in love with him. It’s a great story or friends to lovers but with a bit of killing.
The spice was very detailed but then again, it’s a very slow burn book. So you don’t get to the spice until a little more than half into the book. The author does go into detail with the spice scenes and there are a few of them, I’ll rate the spice a 4 because of that.
