One minute I’m cleaning toilets for minimum wage.

The next, I’m waking up from a drug-induced nap with a monster staring down at me.

Kidnapped and seconds from death, I think I’m done for.

Until masked men burst in, murder my attacker, and turn my world upside down.

They call themselves Murder Squad.

A secret brotherhood of broken men who only kill the worst of the worst.

And one of them thinks I’m his wife.

X is unhinged, obsessed, and deadly. A psychopath who hides behind bad jokes and bloodstained fingers.

Whip’s older, grumpy, and used to women paying him to worship them. But when he finds out I’m a virgin, he can’t keep his hands off my plus-size curves.

And Levi? One year of handwritten letters was all it took to fall in love with a man I’d never met. My prison pen pal turned killer, fighting his darkness for a second chance.

But they aren’t the only psychopaths in Saint View.

Someone’s playing a twisted game, leaving rhyming threats and promising to end us all if we don’t stop them first.

With every lie we uncover, every secret we expose, the danger mounts.

Until there’s only one thing we know for sure.

There’s a killer out there.

And this time, he’s hunting us.

X’s and O’s is a dark rom com. It’s an adult, why choose romance, meaning the main character has more than one love interest. You can expect a plus size, tall heroine, psycho heroes, a murder mystery, and a spicy club. This book contains romantic suspense and triggering themes. It is the first book in an ongoing trilogy.

love the male characters. they are sweet and funny and lovely, but my God I got very frustrated with the main character. her insecurities are selfish and self absorbed so much that she's judgmental and rude to the male characters (Levi specifically) without and before they can explain their actions and she never apologizes for her behavior. she never considered the point of view of others or puts her in their shoes. she has very little empathy if she had assumed the worst about what people think of her already.

the male characters, the narration, the story. are greate

I enjoyed X the most. The FMCs self loathing was a bit much as a female who has struggled with self image herself it was hard to swallow that much self depreciation over being tall and thick. Be aware it ends suddenly and on a major cliffhanger there are no resolutions.

Truly think it probably could and should have been shortened and book 2 probably could have been partially added to this one. I do plan to read the next installment however, lots of thoughts on this.

Mmmm idk
