This book definitely knows what it is and doesn’t shy away from itself. The author hits you right away with some pretty gruesome imagery, which I think sets the tone correctly for the rest of the book. Definitely not a book for the squeamish or faint of heart. Readers should definitely read the content warnings if they’re unsure.

That being said, the attraction between the two characters is instant and the romance builds at a good clip.

I also read this in audiobook format, which was excellently produced! I think the performance of both narrators was enhanced by recording the dialogues in the same room. 

Read if you like gruesome scenes, body horror, and spice.
