As such, she gets to see her parents any time she wants since they live in the little village that is famous as the place where Winston Churchill made his home. Peckham is a native of Kent and lives about ten minutes away from the home where she was brought up. Together, they run a crazy but amazing and fun Facebook group where they interact with their readers. While she started out writing on her own, she now works with Susanne Valenti, her sister, to write their novels. Must-read for those with a twisted and dark sense of humor who want slow burn steam with a little side of crazy.Caroline Peckham is a paranormal romance, new adult romance, young adult fantasy and urban fantasy novelist. I will be reading the next in the series as soon as it comes out, and in the interim, I’ll be binging their other books like a nut job fangirl.

I give this book a full five out of five stars, but I’d give it ten if I could. Now I’m not going to know what my favorite psychos are up to for months! C’mon girls! Help a sister out! I only have one complaint, and I want to strangle these ladies because of it. Niall is a sexy, Irish gangster with killer abs, (see what I did there?) and Mateo is the mysterious, brooding fixer from a rival cartel that just happens to be exactly what Brooklyn has been looking for. Of course, one would imagine that we couldn’t exactly relate to sociopaths like this, but these characters are incredibly relatable in an odd sort of way, and that makes the slow burn here scorching hot.

Then, maybe stay out of their way.īesides the story itself, let’s talk steam. Brooklyn and Niall are like the kind of folks that you’d imagine you could be besties with, just chilling and hanging out, going with the flow, except when they’re seeing red and have a taste for blood, anyway. Magnificent energy that just won’t quit, gut-busting hilarity that makes absolutely no sense in the best sort of way, and the most unusual circumstances make for an unforgettable story. The sheer brilliance they’ve employed here with Brooklyn, Mateo, and Niall is unlike anything I’ve experienced before. Well, I mean, unless you have issues with carnage and blood and a healthy dose of crazy.ĭown to the nitty gritty, my favorite thing, (and it was hard to pick just ONE favorite thing) is that these two wonderful ladies have managed to capture the absolutely beautifully chaotic mindset of the mentally unsound. Ok, I’m just going to leave it like this.
