It was Halloween, my favorite time of the year. I had my dream job as a tattoo artist, a loyal best friend, and an ex who happily tended to my needs without complicating our arrangement with feelings.
Everything was going great until Devil’s Night when the masked man watched me from the shadows like a predator stalking his next meal, and that’s what I was: his prey.
Like any natural-born predator, he was bloodthirsty, staking his claim to me before I could see the face behind his mask. He wasn’t afraid to kill for a bite of what he craved, even if it meant shedding the blood of those closest to me. Once he had a taste, he hungered for more, and the more he needed it, the more I wanted to give it to him.

But for those who can handle it, this book is a rollercoaster ride of emotions. There were moments where I wanted to throw up, but I say that with the best intentions. The authors’ ability to elicit such strong reactions from readers is a testament to their writing skills. This book will leave you feeling disturbed, scared, and completely enthralled.
As someone who typically prefers happy endings, I was hesitant to read this book. But I’m glad I did. The twists and turns kept me guessing until the very end. And I have to say, the ‘love her and die’ concept in this book takes the stalker trope to a whole new level. The dude’s obsession with the main character is both terrifying and intriguing.
I will admit, I am not a huge fan of blood and gore in my entertainment. But this book has converted me. I cannot recommend it enough. It’s a book that will stay with you long after you finish reading it. It’s a book that I will be recommending to all my friends, with a trigger warning, of course.
On a scale of 1 to 5, I would give this book a solid 4. The only reason I didn’t give it a perfect score is because of my personal aversion to excessive gore. But for those who enjoy a good scare and don’t mind a bit of blood and violence, this book is a definite 5.
