4.5

I had such great fun reading this book. The writing is easy to follow along even though there was a lot happening to bring both main characters into each others’ worlds. The dialogue and banter was hilarious and entertaining to me — Dusty had a dark, sarcastic sense of humor that immediately made me fall in love with her. 

Only reason it wasn’t a full 5 stars for me was because there were times I couldn’t tell if the scene was set in reality or in a fever dream. 

If you’re looking for a fun, dark romcom-ish book, then give this one a try! It also has:

- Haitian voodoo folklore
- motorcycle gangs
- grumpy x sunshine
- bisexual main characters
- slow-burn
