Love can be murder, especially when your ex is a serial killer. Don’t miss this spicy new romantic suspense by New York Times, USA Today and Audible bestselling author Kylie Scott!
Nothing prepared Sidney Walsh for the awkwardness of having unknowingly dated an infamous killer. She’s doing her best to move on after her ex got dragged off to jail. If only online amateur investigators, his creepy fans and a particularly belligerent cop would leave her alone. Her social life might be quiet, what with having few friends and the neighbors wanting nothing to do with her. But at least it’s safe. That is until tattooed chef and all-round thirst trap, Noah, moves in next door.
Now Sidney is being asked on dates for the first time in forever, and feeling a dangerous mix of soul-deep connection and red-hot desire. But the darkest moments of her life come crashing back when her ex decides he has unfinished business…her. Will she and Noah make it out alive, and can their love withstand the nightmare of her past?
Review by Twinsie Melinda
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I am not a big true crime, murder mystery fan but this is Kylie. I’m not a zombie kind of girl either but I liked Kylie’s zombies so I figured I would give this a shot.
Sydney’s ex is a serial killer rotting in prison for the past 10 years. So Sydney and her friends have spent the past 10 years trying to map out places he could have buried the bodies. Then the sexy Noah moves in next door.
I tried to get into this one but I am just not into to the true crime. Don’t skip this book just on the reviews you read. Just because this was not for me doesn’t mean it wouldn’t be something you would enjoy. I am a big Kylie fan and would not pass on one of her books. This book is also in audio and I love Andi as a narrator on all of Kylie’s other books.

Review by Twinsie Angie
I purchased this audiobook when it first released on Audible. I also was offered a review copy of the ebook from the author when the ebook was the be published.
I am a giant true crime fan and read a lot of true crime biographies so I jumped to read this book. I did enjoy the story and understood some of it would be unreliable but much like Ryan Murphy’s Monster TV series, I was ready for this.
I have to say that I felt the story was kind slow and dragged in parts which to me was shocking. I never find that with Kylie’s books. She has great whit and snark but this book seemed to lack the chemistry with her characters that I love.
I felt the story was pretty A+B=C with the plot. Nothing really shocking came from the story and maybe that was why I thought it was kind of flat?
I would recommend that if you haven’t read a Kylie book not to start here because to me this is not her best work.
