Book Review: One Killer Night

 


USA Today bestselling author Trilina Pucci cranks up the heat in this sexy slasher filled with dark family secrets, classic horror tropes, and banter as sharp as a deranged killer’s knife.


Love is patient.

Love is kind.

Love will stab you from behind.

It’s Halloween night, and out-of-work writer Goldie Monroe’s trip to the drugstore scares up more than the fake blood she’s looking for. It leads to the man of her naughtiest dreams. And in spite of her costume, sparks fly from the moment they meet.

Noah Adler, aspiring sneaker designer, is impossibly gorgeous—like a tatted-up version of Goldie’s favorite blue-eyed vampire. He’s there for candy, but it’s Goldie he can’t resist. When she invites him to her sister’s F/X company bash, he’s all in without a second thought.

The pair’s flirty connection heats up fast, carrying them to electrifying new heights. But after Goldie discovers Noah is hiding a dark secret, it all starts to crumble. Looking for answers about her own past awakens new dangers, and when Goldie and Noah land at a slasher camp for adults, a deadly tragedy threatens to repeat itself. If they can survive this one killer night, they can definitely slay a happily ever after.


My Review

What started as a random meeting for Goldie and Noah will turn out to be the best night of their lives. Noah and Goldie are so good. I am obsessed with them. When Goldie learned about Noah's secret, my heart was crushed as well as Goldie's. 

If you have read any of Trilina's books, you know she brings the SPICE. Yet, this book is more than just about the heat. A strong storyline. I have read a bunch of Trilina's books. She can write. I absolutely LOVED this book. Trilina punches me with the one, two punch for a knockout! I am a fan of horror movies. The nineties horror genre is great. 

The last third of the story is where the truth is exposed. What a twist. The fact that it all happened at a camp is perfect. I mean think of Jason and Camp Crystal Lake. Yet, the Scream/I Know What You Did Last Summer vibes are strong. Gimmie book two now!
