Book Description

When a chance encounter sparks an unlikely bond between rival murderers Sloane and Rowan, the two find something elusive—the friendship of a like-minded, pitch-black soul. From small town West Virginia to upscale California, from downtown Boston to rural Texas, the two hunters collide in an annual game of blood and suffering, one that pits them against the most dangerous monsters in the country. But as their friendship develops into something more, the restless ghosts left in their wake are only a few steps behind, ready to claim more than just their newfound love. Can Rowan and Sloane dig themselves out of a game of graves? Or have they finally met their match?

My Review

There have been mixed reviews on this book on BookTok. I had my reservations, but I wasn’t disappointed. I mean, what could happen when two serial killers fall in love?

This book was a highly entertaining, humorous, and engaging read. I could not put it down. I kept wanting to know who would win the yearly hunting contest.

I don’t usually read this kind of book. It is the gross stuff in them that makes me say ‘ewww.’ And I said ewww a lot in this one. I was also laughing out loud. I can not wait to read the next book in the series.
