Two serial killers, too many secrets, what could go wrong? Bloody everything in the best possible way. 

I don't even know where to start with this. 

Kyrie is amazing as the lead female character. She has such depth and feeling to her that I honestly forgot she wasn't real. The things this woman has been through are unimaginable, but that doesn't stop her from being a total badass! I pity any man that gets on her hit list. 

Jack is terrifying,enigmatic, and down right hot. The man should be illegal (I mean, he is a serial killer), but goddamn! He is cold throughout most of the book, but the soft spot he develops for Kyrie is knee buckling. (Don't we all want a partner that would burn down the world for us?) 

The plot was immaculate. Every time I got to the end of a chapter and thought I could go to sleep, the book told me I was wrong and I had to read more. I found this so hard to put down (sorry, not sorry to anyone who read over my shoulder on the subway!).

The surprises kept on coming, and there were so many twists and turns that I felt like I needed a seat belt. 

This is definitely a dark book and will not be to everyone's tastes, but if you're in the mood for something riveting, engaging, and spicy, this book will deliver all that and more! 

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
