Kill Switch by Penelope Douglas
4.0

Kill Switch is the third book in the “Devil’s Night” series and one of the most darkest of installments in the series. I was highly apprehensive in reading this one, but I was encourage by fellow romance readers I trust that it would be a winner. So I decided to take a chance upon this one here, and I will be honest in that I wasn’t sure how I would fare with this one here. And I will be honest that Kill Switch was a highly challenging read and it won’t be everyone’s cup of tea. It involves certain aspects that are extremely difficult to read in some ways and probably why it took me so long to read it. Even though I adored the previous books in the series, I think this is the darkest of them so far. Now this series is so well written in how it crafts certain elements, and I truly admire the way that Penelope Douglas has written these books. But I struggled with the hero being married and while I don’t mind revenge sub plots, It was done differently than I expected. But there was also a higher focus on flashbacks and when I say flashbacks I mean a TON of them, that it was quite distracting and took away some of my enjoyment of the story. I will say that the latter half of the story was wonderful and so endearingly sweet. Once our pair got their issues out of the way, It truly was the sweetest fruit seeing them truly together.

Overall I found Kill Switch to be a thrilling, edgy romance that offers plenty of mystery and intrigue that will delights its readers.
