Killing Me Softly: To Love a Psycho, Book 3: A Dark MM Forbidden Student/Professor Psychological Thriller

What a thrilling ride! If you’ve gotten this far you should have already read or listened to books 1&2 , and rest assured book 3 is as good as expected. I envisioned it coming together a bit differently with our main villains/nemesises, but I’m not sad about it. If you’re listening to the audio, Piers Ryman’s Kenneth is everything I needed it to be and CF White nails the balance between teaching the reader on a topic while maintaining the integrity of the story, expertly weaving psychological observation into the story to move the plot forward. If you’ve gotten this far and you like any kind of psychological thriller (which if you’re reading this review clearly you do), you already know this is a must read series. CF White is now a one-click author for me.

This book was so intense to read. I did, however, enjoy the ride. The tension is palpable and I had to put my book down every once in a while to ease the tension. HEA much appreciated.

Thank you for the book, here is my honest opinion: 4.5⭐️This was been such a fun ride with Aaron and Kenny, each book getting better and better. The author really dis an excellent job building the tension and putting enough distraction into the plot to really keep me guessing how this could possibly turn out okay for Kenny and Aaron. Kenny and Aaron’s relationship is crazy complicated to say the least. They are in the middle of the a wild, crazy, and brutal family drama- set in place long ago by Aaron’s mother, Roisin. I both hated and loved this character, Roisin is truly evil but so fascinating and compelling to read. It’s kind of a miracle that these two do manage to make it to their HEA.

Engrossing, many twists and turns, some dark and difficult moments. More than a page turner. I threatened to do an all nighter two nights in a row but didn’t. But I couldn’t put the book out of my mind when I went to bed. Several sections where the author explains what’s happening in psychological terms which I had to reread but eventually grasped. The relationship between Kenny snd Aaron is intense from start to finish. Kenny provides a sanctuary and security blanket for Aaron which be badly needs and will probably never outgrow his need for. Due to his troubled past and a past it seems he was lucky to survive with any degree of sanity.And Kenny is more than willing to provide that for a lifetime. It’s essential to read Book one and two before reading this book three, to understand much of what’s happening. More please, Mr. White.

A great blend of dark, psychological minds with the love of Kenny and Aaron! The first book started slowly, but it needed to in order to set the stage for what came next. I loved the characters, their edges, the mind games, their push and pull, but most of all the right amount of realistic compassion.
