A sapphic vampire/human dark romance? Say less.
Damn, this was a ride. I am so looking forward to book 2, especially after the twist cliffhanger ending!

I really enjoyed this, particularly the audio. Although I was able to guess most of the twists, there was enough going on that I was second guessing myself at times. The characters were flawed but so well-flushed out, and I really enjoyed their development and growth. Even the side characters had a lot going for them without feeling like they were taking anything away from the main mystery. This was a solid debut, and I look forward to reading more by this author!
