The book starts with our female main character, Aly, who is a trauma nurse. Having so stressful work, she has a secret hobby to relax, watch masked men thirst traps on social media. She ends up sending one of her favourite videos of her casual fuck buddy, asking him if they could try something like that. He tells her no, and that he has someone who he is planning to start a serious relationship with, ending their situationship. After this he shows this message and video to his roommate, making fun of it and calling her freaky. Josh is that roommate, who is our male main character. He has a secret from his roommate, so when he sees the video, his video. He is secretly doing a masked thirst trap video for social media and now knowing the woman he met together with his roommate is into his videos, starts his obsession with Aly.
Their story progresses in an interesting and a quite natural way, even though it is a bit unorthodox and their chemistry gets hot really fast, without making it seem unrealistic. Their bantering together is one of the many highlights of the story which kept me entertained from the beginning until the very end. There were even some plot twists that I didn’t see at all coming, until they exploded in the pages to my mind.
I read this book as an audiobook, which was my first one and I must say, to get full enjoyment from the story you must do it like that too. Both narrators for Aly and Josh were perfect in their chapters and it made me believe they really were them.
I recommend this book for all those who want a bit darker tones in their books, without going completely crazy or to those that are just getting into dark romance books.
I will happily give this book five out of five hearts!
