There is a bit of cannibalism. But defo read the content/trigger warnings. I’m usually a slightly squeamish person so some parts I just had to get through but it actually wasn’t as bad as I thought!

I’m surprised how much I actually enjoyed this. Rowan was such a heart throb and the spicy scenes were SPICYY. I will say it kind of dragged towards the end but I still thought it was a great dark romance read. The killing scenes and serial killer aspect of the story really kept my attention as well. I’m curious to see how Leather & Lark plays out.

This was swill. It wasn’t sexy in the slightest, it wasn’t really funny or cute. It was a literal waste of time but it was a book club pick and I’m a team player.

If you have the option, listen to the audiobook. Both narrators did a fantastic job and had me laughing throughout.

It’s Dexter meets 50 shades of grey(which I couldn’t get into the later) two serial killers meet under some awkward situation and they start up a yearly tradition to hunt down serial killers and see who kills them first.

They then start to fall in lust and love. It gets pretty sexy filled towards the end for sure. I didn’t care too much for the romance/sex aspect but it did feel wilder than 50SG.

The cannibal chapter was pretty damn great.

Didn’t care much for the “surprise” villain at the end tho.

But still a fun listen.

So so good. I'm not one for gross things and was fully ready to DNF if it got too bed, but it really wasn't. The grossest part was the first scene. Everything after that was fairly tame, just blood and vomit. The cannibalism was 2 parts in the same setting. One was hilarious and one was just kinda gross but not obscene.

This book was way better than I expected. Love the MCs. Can't wait to read the next book ❤️
