I'm not sure that any book in this universe can dethrone Butcher & Blackbird as my favorite, but Tourist Season definitely comes in at a close number two. There was something special about Butcher & Blackbird that just hit me differently.

I really enjoyed this spicy novella. The back and forth between Millie and Hayes was amazing to read, I loved that she had no problem giving him sass and I equally loved that he had no problem showing her just what it did to him, once we got there.

It wasn't overly super unique, but as a whole, the story caught my attention. I'm definitely invested in Delilah and X, and I am curious to see how it will go in book two.

Is it perfect, not at all. Is it still a good, dark read? Yes.
