Sigh 😞 I really wanted to love this as I am a BIG fan of HD Carlton and her writing style, but alas I found myself fairly underwhelmed with this book. Seeing as this prequel to the Cat & Mouse duet was based around Gig’s diary,  I was looking forward to getting an expansion on her 1940’s stalker romance, but this was painfully slow and too long considering nothing new happened. It also felt incomplete, as it never never hit a real climax or addressed the tragic end to Genevieve’s life; I would have loved to have gotten Ronaldo’s perspective on her murder and the resulting fallout. I think it would have worked better as a novella, maybe that would’ve helped with the plot redundancy and not so wrapped up ending.
