DO NOT read this if you are squeamish, uncomfortable with graphic descriptions of violence, or don’t have a dark sense of humor. I don’t have a dark sense of humor and because of that, I did not like it as much as others have.

Very dark, very not my style, but I can respect a well written book. The plot was fun and it kept me engaged during the read.  The murderous and sociopath themes are not usually my style, but I felt like they tied in romance well to it. The serial killer aspect was interesting and they did have “morals” behind what they were doing, but most of it just felt wrong and honestly off-putting.

I liked the story, it was a fun premise right from the start. I didn't find it gory like others have said, and I will still happily eat icecream, so perhaps I have a stronger stomach than some other readers! 

I had some issues with the huge time jumps in the story, that were a minor distraction when they occured. As always with romance books, I found the sudden infatuation and the constant blushing to be a bit unbelievable. But the characters were fun, as were the major competition moments. 

I look forward to reading the rest and getting to know the side characters from this story a lot more.
