If “You” and “Butcher & Blackbird” had a baby, you’d get There are No Saints 👏

Spicy? Yep! Romance? Yep! Definitely needed to check your trigger warnings before reading? Yep yep yep! Serial unalivers? Yep! Dark & twisted obsession and stalking? Yep! Cliffhanger needing me to read the second book of this duet immediately? Also yep! 😍

Who would you cast as Mara? 
Who would you cast as Cole?
Who would you cast as Shaw?

It was addictive but some parts were very disturbing. Very dark romance but I was hooked. Definitely will be reading the second one.

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...

i didn’t know what to expect going into this book but oh my goddd i loved it. i do wish there was more focus on the trauma that mara experienced, hence my rating of the book. i adore sophie lark’s work and i will never pass up an opportunity to read something written by her. i’m starting the next book in the duet asap!

This book is dark and I was surprised that it didn’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.
