Summary
A sweet sapphic romance takes a deadly dark turn in this sharp-as-a-knife novella with the slow build menace of Angela Carter's The Bloody Chamber—from a New York Times-bestselling author hailed by Chuck Wendig as "a storyteller working at the top of her class."
Rosemary meets Ash at the farmers' market. Ash—precise, pretty, and practically perfect—sells bars of soap in delicate pastel colors, sprinkle-spackled cupcakes stacked on scalloped stands, beeswax candles, jelly jars of honey, and glossy green plants.
Ro has never felt this way about another woman. With Ash, she wants to be her and have her in equal measure. But as her obsession with Ash consumes her, she may find she's not the one doing the devouring . . .
Told in lush, delectable prose, this is a deliciously dark tale of passion taking an unsavory turn . . .
Contains mature themes.

Enthralling storytelling with a twist
This book falls outside my usual genre but I've always enjoyed Delilah's books.
In this book, it feels like Delilah perfectly describes life in the southern states of America. You are transported to sunny states and a relaxed way of life.
The characters and their lives are perfectly told - it's easy to put the words into pictures and to be sucked in further.
The story is clever - you start to pick up on the warning signs in the story but it keeps you guessing until the end. As ever, there are amazing quote worthy pieces.
There are parts with adult themes but they are in keeping with the story.
I enjoyed Sarah's performance - she sounded as I would image Ro to sound, which helps immerse you in the story.
Highly recommended along with Delilah's other books.
