I laughed out loud at absurd moments and found myself flipping back to catch details I might have missed as the story took strange, surprising turns.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Dolores dela Cruz &amp; Jake Ripper (I kid you not with this name) both work at the same office building. Where Dolores is dark and moody, Jake is gray and un-noticeable. They end up in the same elevator one day and Dolores is convinced that Jake is a serial killer. He is a temp who blends into the scenery. Dolores is the scary, prickly gal who wears black and no one approaches. As they are walking to their cars together, Jake\u2019s gloves are the first thing that Dolores notices and instantly pegs Jake as a serial killer. When she asks him to open his trunk to prove the car in question is his, they begin an interesting back and forth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Dolores has a corner office in a remote area of the building and no one questions what she does all day so this makes Jake curious.  They have an interesting cat and mouse game, breaking into each other\u2019s things.  What starts as suspicion on both ends, ends up bringing these two loners closer together, as they start a dark romantic flirtation.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The humor is twisted, the interactions are unpredictable, and there\u2019s a twist that caught me off guard\u2014I had to reread parts to fully process it. I\u2019m still not sure if the author is a comedic genius or just a bit unhinged (in a good way). If you\u2019re into romance with a side of morbid humor, this obscure gem will definitely entertain you.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Thank you to NetGalley and Berkley Publishing Group for this darkly humorous rom-com eARC in exchange for my honest thoughts and opinions!
