While this isn’t a groundbreaking novel or even story line ,, it is smooth, fast paced , dark and engaging.

Just, wow . It took a bit to get into , as there are multiple POV s and time jumps. About 125 pages in , it starts to hook you and halfway through ,, you gotta keep going! Just when you think you’ve completely solved it ,, more is unburied.

LOVED this series ! Needed a palate cleanser after though . This last book brought you all the way in and the feeling of internal heaviness and exhaustion matched the heroines. A Tell of character writing. Highly recommend this whole series .

A slow ish start , that picks up quickly , and makes you realize ,, this is not what you thought it would be. Absolutely LOVED the HIDDEN mystery of the book! Although it got a bit chaotic at the end, definitely enjoyed!

DELICIOUS spicy scenes. So close to being a 4-4.5,, the storylines felt a little choppy at the beginning, but did level out. There was a nice twist towards the end. The ending did feel a bit abrupt. I hope author ✍🏼 dives and grows into this writing style. It’s a fun, charming , delectable read .
