Thank you, Netgalley and Ruxandra Tarca, for this ARC.

I instantly clicked request on Netgalley when it mentioned a Jack The Ripper retelling. So I had high hopes. And oh my gosh, it did not disappoint!

First time that I am reading a book where two men are the main characters. I loved the dual POV! The most handsome bachelors of England. One of them is an assassin who makes poisons to murder the 'unnaturals'. The other has a secret that no one can know about or it will cost his life (and others). Together, they are on the search for the person behind all those gruesome murders in London, The Ripper. Along the way, they get help from an emerald-eyed beauty and a brazen lady.

The writing is exquisite. You instantly get pulled into the story. The different backgrounds and the strong relationships between the characters in this book are beautiful. All is so well-thought! Never a dull moment throughout the story. I sat on the edge of my seat the entire time. The story was gripping and action-packed, and I loved the mystery. The romance was so enthralling. Even the two men made me swoon! There is no spice. The magic happens behind closed doors. ✨️

This book has an open ending, which made me scream cause the last pages were so suspenseful, and I still have so many questions. So, I hope the second book will soon be released. I want to know more about the characters, their relationships, and the murderer. It's just such an intriguing story!
