๐‘…๐‘’๐“‹๐’พ๐‘’๐“Œ: Why is this so cute and creepy & terrifying at the same time?  Sophie did really well making this man read as a sociopath, he reads that way and it stays consistent throughout the story (or as well as it can when he is the love interest in a romance novel). As for Mara, I love how stubborn she is, it is so fantasic.

Well, that was... well it certainly was a book. Towards the end, I started to understand why this was getting all the hype. By the end I mean like literally the last two chapters. I just don't think this is my thing. I can read dark romances and be okay with horrible main characters, but bro was creeping me out. I think I just hated the MMC. Still consuming what the hell I just read, will I be reading book two? Duh. But a bit speechless and conflicted on how I'm feeling right now...

This book is dark and I was surprised that it didnโ€™t include a trigger warning page. With that said it was a fun dark romance and I did find the characters likable. This is definitely a morally grey love interest.

This is a serial killer AU, and like most or almost all serial killer setups requires some suspension of disbelief. Reader must be ready to allow for some stretches like the police are incredibly incompetent, DNA and forensic science doesn't exist, people and bodies are easily unalived and disappeared with very little or no curiosity/questions or investigation. Okay that makes it sound terrible but I really love these kind of dark romances so I will allow it. I was invested enough to keep turning the page. Admittedly as an art school kid the characters all being artists gave me a huge laugh.

This is not my typical genre like at ALL so I took that into consideration when rating. I donโ€™t think dark romance is for me but I was so entertained?? Super easy to read and will be reading the second book lol
