“You’re all the best things to me, Sloane. No matter how many bruises are in your heart or on your skin.”

Just read it. It's worth the hype. I loved this book. It's dark, thrilling, and funny with the chemistry and banter it was brilliant. Also felt like something I haven't read before with the witty fun and games serial killer vibes. Sloane is strong, smart and determined but also holding back on opening up to a chance at love. Then we have the fun flirty Irish man named Rowan who is a chef and would burn mountains for his woman. The spice was delicious and very intimate. The slow burn was strong but worth every minute. It just kept me gripped and engaged with the storyline as these characters were perfection. Very excited for the next instalment following Lark and Lachlan!
