I spent my life on a pedestal, cloaked in red and black, and forced to be a good girl and obey, while I was used and abused for everyone else's pleasure. I kept a list of names of those who had wronged me, and prayed for the day when I'd be able to get my revenge; on it, the father's of my best friends. I was chained and heavily medicated, making sure I wouldn't be able to talk. No one wanted me to talk. But that was okay, because talking was the last thing I wanted to do. When the opportunity to flee fell into my lap, I took it, running as far as I could with the voices in my head and my best friend Addy beside me. Now, I hide behind a mask in the shadows of every name on my list—plotting, watching, waiting—including the three boys who ruined my life without even knowing it: Asher, Killian, and Dominic. Now it's my time to ruin theirs. All those who have stolen a part of me will drown in their blood and perish in the flames that I'll ignite. But when the boys who hold the secrets to my past weave their way into my heart and soul, they threaten to derail the plans that I spent my life mapping out. And fuck, I can't have that. Like it or not, they're going to help me bring chaos to society, one name at a time... even if they don't know it yet. They owe me for ruining my life, and I'm ready to collect.
This is Book 1 in the Killer Kids thrillogy, and ends on a cliffhanger. There is extreme content and triggering scenes and anyone under 18 should not read it.

Little psycho - KM Rogness ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ This book is amazing. The plot holy cowwwww. There is SO MUCH plot in this book. Spicy spice! But the story is everything. The ending slayed meeee and I NEED the next book so so bad 😂 Calista is a baddy that has a hard ass life but it turned her into a total badass. I’m in love with Five. Like, I want him irl please. Omg I love him. And the boys are just perfect. I’m so so so ready for more of their story.
My Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶 Wildly unhinged and spicy! This book gripped me in a dark and twisted chokehold. From the beginning, Calista's deep, dark traumatic story catapults you into her journey of escape and vengeance for everything she's endured, and you can't help but want her to bring down hell on everyone. Not just Calista but Ash, Killian, and Dom endure so much too, and my heart ached for all of them. Five has my heart from the moment he comes into Calista's life, a little sweet salvation in her newfound freedom. And, if you're looking for just the spicy bits, there's a whole list of the spicy parts at the beginning of the book! Reader beware, this book is very dark, and there is some extreme content. Do not take this warning lightly.
“More like a game of strip poker with some fucking murder on the side,” -Killian
This book was different from what I was expecting but it is good. There’s defiantly trigger’s so you should read them before you read the book. The plot is amazing, there’s so much plot but it’s good! It makes the book! I did like the book the connection between the main characters, it’s a spider web but they were all made for each other. There is a lot of drug use from the main characters its not my favorite part but its a part of the characters. I did how ever love the fact that there was a list at the beginning of the book of all the super spicy chapters. That was a first for me but it was nice to have a little over view of how many spicy chapters there is in the book! But the ending!!! That was pretty good.. can’t wait for book two!!
Overall this was a good read and I will be recommending it to my book groups and book friends. I will also be adding this one to my trophy shelf!!!!

“Chaos seems to motivate me, and I crave it more than anything.”
As always KM seems to have me in a complete choke hold. Her books never seem to fail to amaze me. I have been a fan for a while and I won’t stop being one because her worlds speak to my black soul and heart in the best way. If you love depraved men who are broken and yet beautiful with an unhinged woman with a score to settle then please go read 😏 this book has plot twists and crazy all in one and it’s intoxicating

“They call me Little Psycho, and you haven’t seen anything yet.”
CALISTA— She goes through hell and back at a young age of 13 to 20s. She is strong and is a fighter and yet they underestimate her all the same. Her broken boys have been her best friends for years, the four of them have a bond like no other and yet everything changes on her 13th birthday….Addie is the only one who’s been there for her through everything…can they save her too
"We may be damaged, but we're not fully broken, and together we're stronger than we could ever be alone, even if we don't believe it."
"Who are you?" "A ghost from your past, but tonight, l'm very much alive.”
DOMINIC, ASH, KILLIAN— they are broken just like her, she use to be their sunshine through it all until she wasn’t, they hadn’t seen her in years and yet she’s not the little girl they were once friends with. She’s fierce and unhinged in the best way. They all have darkness and it calls to each other like a beacon and there’s no way out…
“We’re not going to let you go. We belong together, just as we always have.”
“For you, baby, I’ll do anything. I’ll break you down and build you up,”……“I’ll worship you like a f^kn queen, but I’ll f^k you like a dirty little sl^+,”
"She's ours just as we are hers. It was that way when we were little, and to this day, it has never f*cking changed--it will never change."
After everything I still love all the plot twists in this book and I couldn’t get enough. I need more to see what happens next. Book 2 I am waiting for you 🖤🖤
oh my god? obsessed is an understatement. I need more right now i don’t do well with cliffhangers 😭 this book was so so so amazing. i’m a sucker for RH and a spicy FMC 😮💨 i love all the boys and the way they all care about calista 🥹 and five? don’t even get me started on that man he is 👩🏻🍳💋 DIVINE. I cannot wait to see what’s next for them!!! currently counting down the days till K.M announces book 2 😩
ARC REVIEW My mind is still shocked from what i just read. I don't think i'm going to move on from this book ever. If you loved the devil nights series by penelope douglas , your going to love this. My heart broke for them. People meant to protect them from the monsters, became their monsters. It was nice for once not seeing rich asf ceo with unlimited resources and him being able to take down his father or their in this case; this felt real and raw and all the more heartbreaking. The ending ! i will never get over that ending, I honestly can't wait for book 2. The spice is a sick twisted 5.
This book.. this book.. gahhh I don’t even know what to say or where to even begin.. I felt so sorry for Calista, but as the story went on, I loved how she became a badass and slowly overcame everything she went through since she was a child by the hands of her parents and other people. This a little bit of a spoiler but not to much, but I love how she got revenge on all the people who did her wrong. They definitely deserved it. I loved this book and can’t wait to continue this series
Little Psycho (Book 1, Ki11er Kids Thrillogy) by KM Rogness is an erotic thriller novel. This book was the first book in an amazing three part series. I have read every book this author has written and I am amazed at how she has grown with each book.
The characters are so well thought out and brought to life on the page. You feel as if you are sucked right into the story. The plot is exciting and fresh making everything new and unexpected. I kept turning the page wanting more; I could not put it down. The world and story KM Rogness has began with this story is one of her best so far.
Calista is one amazing and unhinged chick. She is very decisive and determined to get revenge on those who wronged her. Let me tell you she is not wrong for wanting it. Her list is quite long and her need for spilled bl00d strong.
Killian, Dominic and Asher are on her list but somehow they find a way into Calista’s life in a different way. She determines if she can not exact revenge on them her typical way she will just use them another way. Let me tell you this group together cumulate’s in loads of spicy moments and twisted passion. Then you add Five and the story gets even HOTTER!
This wild ride of twists and turns ended on a cliff hanger and I do not know how I will wait until early 2025. If you are looking for a book full of passion, thrills, and twists definitely check this out!
What do you get when you put them all together...another fantastically sinful deranged book by the amazing KM Rogness!!!
She absolutely out did herself with Little Psycho!! Book 1 of the Killer Kids Thrillogy.
KM is my all-time favourite Dark Romance author because she always knows how to make you feel like you are actually experiencing what the characters are feeling and going through in every book she writes.
In Little Psycho, you can feel your heart break with Calista, feel the pain with Ash, Killian and Dominic, and feel the joy and excitement Five brings back into Calista's life, even if it's for a short time.
KM will also always leave you guessing as to what is going to happen next, and I cannot wait for Book 2 of the Killer Kids Thrillogy: Psycho Boys to come out in 2025, where we will get to experience more of Ash, Killian and Dominic!!
Cali, the FMC, is raised by an indifferent mother and father. She has her Best friends in Dominic, Killian and Asher. They had formed a bond from a young age.
That all changes on Cali's 13th birthday. She disappears from their lives only to reunite years later. Forced to betray their sweet Cali in such a way that further breaks them all.
This book is dark, heart-wrenching and disturbing. All the MC's are traumatized and use sex and drugs as a coping mechanism. Oh, and Cali has a list she's checking off of all those that wronged her. Will her three best friends be on the list or help her get her revenge?
This book was difficult to read and yet, I couldn't put it down! I can't wait for the next one because CLIFFHANGER!
This was such a WILD RIDE!!! The plot was PLOTTING, and it had me in the hardest chokehold!!! 🙌🏽🔥 And the spice.. it was SPICIN’!! 🥵🥵🥵 The backstories of these characters were just gut-wrenching, and the story was phenomenal!!! I was rooting for Calista the whole way through! And the boys… they are just PERFECTION 😍🥵🌶️🔥 Loved this entirely from start to finish!! And in conclusion.. I JUST WANT MORE!! 😍🙌🏽🔥
Wheeeew this was a wild ride from beginning to end. The way my heart hurt for Calista as the people who were supposed to love and protect her used and abused her. I love that even in her brokenness that she was determined to make those who wrong her pay. Definitely one of the heavier books I've read and I can't wait for book 2 to see what happens next because that cliffhanger was diabolical.
There’s so much trauma and chaos in this book. Cali, Dom, Ash & Kill have gone to hell and back countless times. The title definitely lives up to its name. This book ends on a cliffhanger. I NEED to know what happens next, I can’t wait for Book 2.
This contains spoilers, so if you do not want those, move along! I hated everything about this book. The writing was so bad, it resembles AI writing. I’m not accusing the author of using AI by any means, but I have used chatGPT for years for work purposes, and the way sentences are written reminds me of a lot of AI output I have seen over the years. Perhaps that’s just the author’s writing style. I also have a lot of thoughts and questions about so many inaccuracies and inconsistencies within the book. This book was drawn by chance for my book club pick. It was in a bowl to draw from, so it was not voted on. It being my book club read is the only reason I had to finish it, but I am glad that we can all share these thoughts with each other. Here it goes!
How are there no indications that she is going to be abused by her parents and then all of a sudden when she turns 13 they randomly decide to lock her up in the basement and sell her on her birthday?
Why is her mom so angry about her wearing a revealing dress and claiming she “looks like a whore” but then make her wear an even more revealing dress later that night?
Where does she learn to pole dance at 13?
How is she not extremely malnourished if not being fed properly?
How does she feel so connected to the three boys if she hasn’t seen them since she was 13?
We get a glimpse into the SA that happened with one of the boys and then automatically the next chapter she knew about it? Then she continued to blame them for them “allowing” it to happen to her?
How does she randomly know how to make an old-fashioned? How does she know where Mr. Brown’s security system is? I highly doubt that’s what he would show her in his “tour.” And the timing of the tour was really weird. He’s in bed already after he tells her to change and meet him in the bedroom for sex so he can abuse her and have sex with her. He’s already laying down when she randomly asks for a tour. He’s paying for a service like would he really be like “okay yeah let me hop up and give you a long detailed tour of my massive mansion”
She lets him have sex with her as he’s about to pass out and then shoves her heel in his neck, leaves the blood on her shoes, touches his phone to turn it off to “prevent distractions” and leaves her fingerprints everywhere.
How does she even know how to quickly erase all security footage when she’s been locked up since 13? If you have a security system like that there are passcodes and passwords to be able to log in and even view any footage to erase in the first place.
I don’t get how she all of a sudden smokes cigarettes and drinks alcohol. She takes a swig of Everclear and winces at the burn and the taste but then downs the rest of it no problem as if she’s been drinking for years?
How is she going to meet five, trust him automatically and ask to go to his place to borrow clothes and then has sex with him the moment she meets him? Without showering after her previous encounter?
The cringe in the book is sooo bad. “Do you ride?” “Oh I ride” as he pulls her down on top of his dick.
How is she able to go to the bar and buy a beer with no ID since there’s no way for her to have gotten one in the years she was locked in her basement since 13 years old?
How does she get into to Chief Bailey’s office and he sees her with the mask and wig on, but then doesn’t recognize she’s wearing the exact same outfit? And still has the same backpack?
Five calls Calista Little Psycho. Then Dom pulls her behind the building and also calls her little psycho when she didn’t mention it previously?
They live in Boston but Chief Bailey was murdered in Brockton. That’s 8 hours of walking distance or did she magically get transportation?
Dom says Calista has a “perfect-toned body —curvy and tanned.” HOW when she was chained in a basement with no sunlight for years and did not have the means to get toned or tan. She was scrawny before and it takes a while to get toned.
On page 66 (ebook) her eyes are brown. On page 247 they are all of a sudden “ocean-blue.” ARGHHHH!!!
…
I felt compelled to go ahead and share some of my questions and issues I had with the book. I am going back through all my notes when I have time and plan to update!
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Wow I’m completely blown away by this read most authors give a little insight to trauma but damn km really took the cake for me I didn’t expect to feel so many emotions right off the bat but from the very first chapter I was hooked and felt everything for the fmc and mmcs like the trauma went deep and didn’t try to sugar coat anything and I loved it I was gasping the whole time and the story was just so in depth and explained so well it had perfect amount of spice but the story is where I’m hooked and the cliffhanger is killing me slowly
Oh my goodness!!!! I can’t get enough!!!! I am literally obsessed with this book and I want more asap!!!
The FMC IS BAD ASS and she’s HOT 🥵!!!!! She takes her lifetime of trauma and seriously gets started on a revenge tour !!!! And let’s not forget her three best friends the MMC’s !!! They each have their own unique stories but they all( including FMC ) share common traumas due to their parents being involved in a secret society!!! The MMC’s are all hot in their own way and all love FMC fiercely!!!
The book ends on a cliffhanger and I’m having a serious hangover - PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS! A lot of blood, drugs,violence and some SA flashbacks.
Overall amazing book , looking forward to the next!
Little Psycho: A Twisted Erotic Thriller by K.M. Rogness 4/5 ⭐️
This was a superb read for the middle of spooky season! This was dark and twisty with some unhinged and fun debauchery. This is a wonderful mix of love, hate, and revenge - all leading to a cliffhanger of an ending!! The trio of boys had me blushing (along with Five 🤭). This releases on October 31st, so be sure to make a note!! 🖤 Thank you for the opportunity to read this as an ARC!!
This book took me for a wild ride and then threw me off a cliff, I’m so desperate for the next one. I’m going to stare at my ceiling for an hour and then figure out what I can read next that’ll compare.
FMC is a bad ass hottie with a traumatic past and she holds the reins now. “They call me little psycho and you haven’t seen anything yet.” 💥
She’s broken free from her chains as a child, literally and figuratively, and is now in the drivers seat. The three MMCs share a similar traumatic past and have been absent from her life for years. Until now.
Cali is a 10/10 FMC and I loved how the author was able to make the MMCs so different and memorable despite some of their commonalities at the beginning. Weapons play and stalking are two of my favorite triggers, so check and check.
I looked up the trigger warnings before I read this and that list read like a cvs receipt so it was an immediate download for me. 🖤
This is an erotic thriller imo, not a dark romance. The plot is bangin, the spice is like the closest to 5 🌶️ I have had in 2024 and I’d call it a solid 4 probably more like a 4.5. The book ends on a cliff so I need book two like I need oxygen. Your mental health matters so if your heart and soul aren’t as depraved as mine please take them seriously and proceed with caution. But this book was 🔥 so I really hope you get to devour it as quickly as I did!!!
"To the feral book girls who prefer hand necklaces over real necklaces and wondered what it would feel like to be fucked by three unhinged men in masks, this one's absolutely for you. Stay dark, stay twisted, stay smutty!"
I devoured this book ! It was unhinged and very spicy ! This book had me on a chokehold .. The story follows Calista's deep dark traumatic story that just catapults you into her journey of escape and the vengeance for everything that she has endured and makes you feel like you want to bring does he'll on everyone that hurts her .. But it's not just Calista but Ash , Killian and Dom that has endured so much aswell . My heart just aches for them so much .. I adore Five so much from the moment that he enters into Calista's life as he is just little sweet salvation that in her newfound freedom that she has.. Readers please be aware as it is very dark and there are some extreme content ...
This is the darkest book Kasey has written so far and I'm all here for it! When I tell you guys you will want to read all the triggers for this book before reading, I mean it 1000%. Kasey doesn't go easy on us in this books and I love it. Calista is crazy and rightfully so. She is out for revenge and revenge she gets! And boy is it hot🥵 This girl fucks like it's nobody's business and girl, I get it😂 And I love how possessive Dom, Ash, and Killian are for her. She is there one and only, no matter the time they were forced to be apart.
Wow, what a story, Kasey! Little Psyco is book 1 in the Killer Kids Triology. This story is twisted, revengeful, and dark with added spice that is as always for top tier for one of Kasey's books.
If you're looking for a sweet romance, why choose story, this won't be the book for you. The book features some very dark themes, and I can't stress this enough check your triggers before starting. I think I felt every emotion while reading this book. The story really does hit hard at times. I don't want to give away any spoliers, but it does end on a cliffhanger, and I can't wait for the next book Psycho Boys.
I love this book! I seriously cannot wait for the second one to come out. Cali and her boys have a special place in my heart. Their struggles are so real and saddening but I love seeing them have their happy moments. Each time Cali had an episode I felt so in touch with her and it was just so emotional. This was one of my favorite reads.
This book has had my emotions all over the place! I have never wanted a FMC to beat ass as much as I have her! I love her three men so much in their own ways. I knew the ending was going to have me either crying or mad! I just couldn't imagine being in the FMC shoes and becoming the woman she is today. Bad ass bitch is all I have to say! Thrilled for the next book 😍
This book knocked my socks off!! I’m obsessed with our characters and how the plot progresses! I cannot wait until the next book is out because that cliffhanger…ahhhhhh!
This is definitely a book for anyone who loves morally grey characters, murder, why choose, and more!
She did it again. Another perfect read. I loved every second of this. I couldn’t put it down. The plot. The spice. Everything in this book was perfect. It was written well. Perfect for spooky season

I can’t believe how she does it but this is yet again another masterpiece written by Kasey. After reading Trick Or Treat I thought I was sold and found my favorite book by her but than I started this one and my god this book is something completely different it’s absolutely amazing the way she describes the five main characters. It’s really fascinating how all the main characters have their own personalities but fitting so well together because broken and troubled souls find each other even in the most difficult times of their lives.
Calista really had a hard time growing up with all kind of mental health problems so her parents give her all sorts of medications by their home doctor. There also happened a lot of awful things to her by her parents and all kind of powerful and important people who ruined her life in the worst way possible because she was only so young yet she had to deal with a lot of abuse and trauma. The boys all had their own troubles and traumas to deal with mostly their fathers they held a lot of power over them and they would do anything to keep the boys under their control. Asher, Killian and Dominic have been together for as long as they can remember together with Calista they were best friends until they were not anymore because Calista was forced to stay at home by her parents. They had a plan for their future and to archive this Calista was to never see the daylight again and only serve as their perfect little doll.
I loved that in this story it was the girl that helped and supported the boys the way Calista helped give them back control and power was something that was really special to me. I loved how Calista took what she wanted and wasn’t afraid to go after what she wanted she was so strong and fierce it was really amazing to see her become such an powerful woman. I loved the parts were the boys went to those races and give us an idea about the underground world and that was really great and exciting.
Stars: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/5 (rounded up for rating) Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️/5
Little Psycho is Book 1 of the Killer Kids Trilogy and is another K.M. Rogness story that I devoured in almost one sitting. This one had me all kinds of f’d up and gripped me in its hold from the prologue.
This is a dark, gritty, twisted, why choose erotic thriller and the trigger list is looooooooong. Please be aware that the trigger warnings are extensive, and they can be found at the author’s website. Do what is best for your mental health and stay safe, friends! *This book will not be for everyone.*
This isn’t a true dark romance, and even though the FMC and MMCs find love in their own twisted way, there aren't any fluff or cutesy moments — rather darkness recognizing darkness, and bonding over the damage caused by others.
“Nothing needed an explanation; the look in our eyes told our stories, so we didn’t have to.”
Our FMC, Calista, has experienced unspeakable trauma and has literally and figuratively broken free of her chains and is taking her life into her own hands. Cali is out for revenge and is determined to take her power back from those who have tried to break her.
“We were all damaged–all broken in our own way–but that’s what made our bond so special.”
Our MMCs are just as damaged and trapped in their trauma as Cali, and are desperate to make amends for their role in losing their childhood connection with Cali. The love these men feel for Cali runs deep and they are willing to succumb to the darkness to help Cali find her closure and regain her spark for life.
When these four reconnect? It is chaotic, messy, there's a whole host of blurred lines, and to top it off, it is SPICY.
“We’re not going to let you go. We belong together, just as we always have.”
If you like your MCs unhinged, seeking revenge on those that have wronged them without fear of getting their hands bløødy, and ready to burn the world down in order to make it happen, then this one's for you.
