Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Turns out that reading nothing but true crime isn't exactly conducive to modern dating - and one woman is going to have to learn how to give love a chance when she's used to suspecting the worst.

PhD candidate Phoebe Walsh has always been obsessed with true crime. She's even analysing the genre in her dissertation - if she can manage to finish writing it. It's hard to find the time while she spends the summer in Florida, cleaning out her childhood home, dealing with her obnoxiously good-natured younger brother, and grappling with the complicated feelings of mourning a father she hadn't had a relationship with for years.

It doesn't help that she's low-key convinced that her new neighbour, Sam Dennings, is a serial killer (he may dress business casual by day, but at night he's clearly up to something). But it's not long before Phoebe realises that Sam might be something much scarier - a genuinely nice guy who can pierce her armour to reach her vulnerable heart.

Critic reviews

"A criminally addictive romance... this book is sheer perfection from beginning to end." (Rachel Lynn Solomon, author of The Ex Talk)

"Unique, sexy, hilarious, charming... The true crime is NOT reading this novel!" (Ali Hazelwood, author of The Love Hypothesis)

Such a good listen

Totally worth listening too.
Easy to listen, also binged through the book as I couldn’t wait to hear the end.

Awful

This is a story written by someone who loves tumblr fan fiction, spending too much time on Twitter/Instagram, listening to podcasts and writing themselves in-between it all.
I know they say “write what you know” but this is ridiculous.
Not a fan unfortunately.
The narrator was very good and did the best they could with the terrible text.
