Astray - Poppy Fitzgerald
When I saw Astray by Poppy Fitzgerald mentioned on Threads one evening I thought to myself "That cover looks HAWT" and so I added the book to my to be read pile. The tags on the post were your usual dark romance trigger words and I was like ... sure, I'm in. What I found was more romantic thriller than dark romance and I am not mad about it. I mean … that’s hot. Eloise is a strong, smart, and intelligent woman whose life takes a very twisted path after meeting a dark, dangerous, Jason Momoa type at a bar when her bestie bails on a girls night out. It's hard to talk about the twists and turns in this book without ruining the plot but let me just say when it comes to how I feel about the men in Eloises life ... As someone who is proud to be the first person to guess the killer in any murder mystery I am so excited to say I liked being tricked by the charming bad guy this time. I really did think he was an okay guy. Well done, Poppy! Well written, face paced, charac...
