Saffy Huntley-Oliver is an intelligent and glamorous socialite; she also happens to be a proficient serial killer. For the past fifteen years, she's hunted down and dispatched rapists, murderers, domestic abusers—bad men all. But leading a double life has left her lonely—dating’s tough when your boyfriend might turn out to be your next victim. Saffy thinks she's finally found a truly good man in Jonathan Desrosiers, a true-crime podcaster who’s amassed legions of die-hard fans for cracking cold cases and bringing justice to victims. When a decapitated body shows up on Jon's doorstep the morning after his wife leaves him, he becomes the chief suspect for a murder he insists he didn’t commit. Saffy’s crush becomes an obsession as she orchestrates a meet-cute and volunteers to help Jon clear his name, using every trick up her sleeve to find the real killer and get her man—no matter the cost.
Puhh to be honest I don’t even know what to say. I finished this book in one day which is honestly just insane for me 😭😭. So cuz of that my mind is a little blown and clouded rn. Ladies and gentleman, this was also THE FIRST BOOK ON MY FIRST KINDLE EVER ‼️‼️ YAYYYYYY. First we have Sally, a serial killer who made it her passion to kill men, specifically bad men. Then we have Jonathan, a journalist specializing on true crime and killers. He also has a podcast and has published a few books surrounding true crime. Sally knew who he was and always found him interesting and had formed a little crush on him. Things escalated quickly and so much was happening at once😭. It was good, intense and I enjoyed it. The suspense was definitely there, especially at the end. I drew the line when Sally did something to the doggie to get Jons attention cause no, that was unacceptable, what did the poor dog do to you💔. Girl, the dog, didn’t like Sally throughout the book AT ALL which was honestly deserved cause no I ain’t playing about that !!! There were many plot twists and some were expected, and some where not. For example, the serial killer who had it out for Jon was Simon which I didn’t expect but it made sense. Simon was such a weird obsessive character😭 his obsession with Jon, his work, being the protagonist of a story and CUTTING OFF JONS TOE? 😀. What the hell. Sally came to the rescue and ngl that bloody kiss they had after they shot Simon was so hot since it was also their first kiss🥲. I kinda expected Sally to be the killer of Fundacci (or wtv his name was I already forgot how it’s spelled) since he’s also a bad man but when she found his severed head and hands in simons freezer i thought he killed him but at the end we got the plot twist that it was Sally all along just wanting to get Jons attention for their love story💀. I don’t have anything much to add to be honest, I liked the writing style and it was easy and fast to read. Would definitely recommend!!
Serial killer x True Crime Podcaster Romance. While I absolutely loved our FMC I felt like there was no plot? No real mystery to speak of. It’s a duel POV with lots of snark, great characters and a questionable but compelling romance, but frankly that’s it. Guess I was expecting more.
Unterhaltsam und gut geschrieben, aber relativ vorhersehbar
