Synopsis: "“Get it out of me.”
It was the last message Holly received from her brother, Dane, before he was found cleaved open in the lavish Savannah townhouse of his girlfriend, Maura. Police ruled his death a suicide sparked by psychosis, but Holly can’t shake the idea that something else must have happened—something involving another message he sent earlier that night about a “game” Maura wanted to play. Determined to discover the truth, Holly begins to stalk Maura, a magnetic, black-eyed florist with a penchant for carnivorous plants. But what begins as an investigation quickly veers into a fixation that lures Holly into the depths of Maura’s world: Savannah high society, eerie black roses, and a whisper of something more sinister. Soon Holly is feeling a dark attraction to the one woman she shouldn’t trust. As Holly falls deeper for Maura and her secrets, she’s left with only one choice: find out what happened to Dane or meet the same fate." Via Amazon

Review
This story gripped me right away and it instantly felt like a thriller with a fast hook to bring you in. I have been done with this one for awhile and I am still thinking about it. It was twisted, gory, horrifying, and sad. I felt all of the emotions while reading this and I really enjoyed the ending.
I hope you enjoy this twisted story as much as I did!
Final Recommendation: Lovers of nature horror, mysteries, unreliable narrators
