I liked that there were many characters with different subplots that had you suspicious and guessing everyone at some point. I did end up guessing what happened but that’s only because I am a thriller/mystery fanatic and didn’t take away from the book at all.
I unfortunately thought the ending was abrupt and left some unexplained storylines. I was thankful for the *bonus chapter* that added a bit of clarity/confirmation of what I suspected.
Overall loved this slasher, thriller, time travel/supernatural-ish with a dash of romance type of read and would recommend it along with Two Sides to Every Murder.

Loved the concept of found family, childhood friends to lovers, cons and a best friend bond in a small rich town.
I have a sibling with the same name as Rocky’s brother so I felt connected to it that way.
I feel like the book was just getting good in the last 15% and then it abruptly ended with a lot of loose strings. Probably will have to reread/skim quickly again before the new book comes.
I could see this series going far with so many characters involved plus the back story of the moms and the family cons.
