“He’s the Devil, and she’s his wicked game”
If you like serial killer romances, if you like symbolic ritualistic occult style reads, this book is for you. If you like an MMC who is completely obsessed with the FMC you need to read this book. Halen is an expert on all things crime scene, but Kallum, the last man she put away is the only one who can help her decipher the information in front of her. Will she offer freedom to a man she thinks is a serial killer in exchange for his help catching another one?
I won’t lie to you, there is so much happening in this book and so many riddles that sometimes my head was spinning. I had no chance of seeing where we were headed but I loved every second of it.
“It’s the lovely bad things that steal into our thoughts in the middle of the night and tempt us across the line between good and evil.”
One of the things I love most about this book is that it’s a dark romance but it’s not filled with SA, non con or CNC.
Trisha’s writing style paints a dark and vivid picture, filled with tension. Sebastian York and Lucy Rivers do a fantastic job bringing life to Halen and Kallum. Kallum is a beautiful dark professor who lures you in, is halen strong enough to evade is pull? This was 100% a top audio book for me this year and I can’t wait to dig into the next one.
I know this review is all over the place, I can’t put my feelings properly into words. I’ve read a lot of reviews that mention how much you would benefit from knowing Socrates, Aristotle, or Plato and while I’m sure having a grasp on that would add to the experience I didn’t feel like I was missing anything. It didn’t take away from this experience for me. It was refreshing to have a plot that I couldn’t immediately guess. This was my first Trisha Wolfe book but it won’t be my last.
Thank you Trisha Wolfe for the ALC in exchange for an honest review. I really did love it.
