About the author

Hey guys! I'm a writer, an office worker, a wife, a mother to two dogs and two cats, and half of a strange pair of young adults who flip the houses they're living in with the goal of having no mortgage (so that I can eventually focus on my writing career!). Needless to say, I'm busy.

Still, I somehow find time to write, to read, and to enjoy life. Wish there were more hours in the day, really!

If you're active on Goodreads and have similar interests, friend me. I don't bite. Or if you'd rather follow my reviews, you can do that, too.

Happy reading!

for a book about serial unalivers, this didn’t have much unaliving in it 😒 i think i just had such high expectations of this book after reading the author’s 𝑨 𝑫𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒉 𝑺𝒐 𝑺𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒕 series.

they spent most of the time in the house doing… nothing. it took them all a bit to get together. also the refractory periods of the guys were just… very unbelievable.

and the number of times the the guys mentioned they weren’t together and there was no “sword crossing” (i hate this phrase SO much, btw). like we get it, you don’t like each other like that. it doesn’t make you less of a serial unaliver if you did 😒

Hoped for Butcher and Blackbird vibes, got disappointed instead.
