My Bloody Valentine by Mila Crawford

dark sad tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No

3.0

I love a dark romance but this was a bit short to appreciate the reasons why the characters are the way they are. (Yes, I know it’s a novella) Stone is psychotic, and unhinged. Emily is broken but numb from her traumatic past. A past that included Stone and one of the reasons he was locked up 10 years ago. The last time she saw him until tonight. 

The triggers are triggering so if you have any issues with that, right off the bat, don’t bother.

If you love a crazy man that will break a guys face for just speaking about you the wrong way, Stone is your man. 

I love Teddy Hamilton as a narrator. He knows how to deliver and usually meets the mark and makes Stone come to life as the cold hearted killer character meant for this story.
