Book Review: Eat Your Heart Out



I didn’t eat people. Just men. First of all, I’d like to set the record straight. I wasn’t a cannibal, ʼkay?

I didn’t eat people. Just men. I ate their hearts out before they ever saw me coming. Figuratively, of course. Most of the time.

Sometimes a girl had to do what a girl had to do. And sometimes what I had to do was fry those suckers up with a little bit of buttermilk and enough shortening to give ya coronary.

I wouldn’t ever apologize for it.

Which was something else you should know about me. I was unapologetic. Then again, so was he. Else the hotshot with a blade bigger than his d*ck wouldn’t have barged his way into my little apartment without so much as a “my bad, sorry for disturbing you, ma’am.”

And I wouldn’t have been forced to tie him to a chair and teach him some manners. But here we are, ain’t we?

Just a sweet little Southern girl and the big bad pickle-diddler who thought he was about to get his rocks off.

Guess it wasn’t his lucky day. Sure was mine, though.

Eat Your Heart Out is a dark standalone novella with a HEA. Please heed the trigger warnings at the beginning of the book. 


My Review

Jack picked the wrong house to break into. This is because he has never met anyone like Charlee. Charlee has a "taste" for a certain kind of meat. For the moment Jack is lucky to be breathing. I love the interactions between Jack and Charlee. They were funny. This Black Widow found her man. 

This book is "unhinged" in the best possible way. I love Charlee. The witty banter that she and Jack share with each other is hilarious. This book instantly made me think of the movie, Fresh starring Daisy Edgar-Jones and Sebastian Stan and the tv show, Santa Clarita Diet starring Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant. 

Eat Your Heart Out is horror meets comedy! This is one book that you don't want to miss out. 2026 has barely started and already this book is one of my top three favorites.
