It has been a while since I read a Devney Perry so I forgot how good her books can be.

I was hooked from the very first chapter. I had a lot of fun theorizing and trying to put all of the pieces of the mystery together. The author took her time building up the suspense, but I do think the reveal at the end was kind of anticlimactic and I was left unsatisfied. Having the story take place in the 80s was refreshing though. I can’t really comment on the accuracy of it since I wasn’t even born, but the vibes were immaculate.

The highlight of the book was without a doubt the romance between Ike and Cosi. Ike was an absolute badass. She was fierce and witty and didn’t take crap from anyone. Cosi was the perfect complement to her. On top of the fact that he’s an amazing single dad and sheriff, he was also protective, broody and kind. I loved them together so much! Cosi’s son Spencer was great as well. I really adored the bond Spencer formed with Ike. It was very cute. There was some miscommunication between Cosi and Ike towards the end of the book which annoyed me, but I’m glad that they were able to resolve it pretty quickly.

All in all, this was a really enjoyable read and I hope the author writes more books for this series.
