This was a thrilling first book to the Villainous Delights series and I’m glad I picked it up. The writing was pretty solid and there were plenty of tense moments to make your heart pound and wonder what’s going to happen next.

I will say that Laine got on my nerves and aggravated me a lot throughout the book. She’s extremely indecisive and makes ignorant decisions that help move the plot along.

I loved Jaxon as a character though. A tortured soul with blood on his hands is exactly what I was looking for when I picked this book up.

I felt like there were some points in the story when it should have slowed down and there were some moments that were unrealistic. I also didn’t really buy into Laine and Jaxon’s chemistry either.

Overall a decent stalker and serial killer novel. I may check out the second book when it releases.
