The TikTok bestseller! A true crime obsessive suspects that her new neighbour might be a serial killer, or something worse... a potential love interest. PhD candidate Phoebe Walsh has always been obsessed with true crime. She's even analysing the genre in her dissertation - if she can manage to finish writing it. It's hard to find the time while she spends the summer in Florida, cleaning out her childhood home, dealing with her obnoxiously good-natured younger brother, and grappling with the complicated feelings of mourning a father she hadn't had a relationship with for years. It doesn't help that she's low-key convinced that her new neighbour, Sam Dennings, is a serial killer (he may dress business casual by day, but at night he's clearly up to something). But it's not long before Phoebe realises that Sam might be something much scarier - a genuinely nice guy who can pierce her armour to reach her vulnerable heart.
Unique, sexy, hilarious, charming... the perfect beach read for anyone who loves witty banter, intelligent plotting, and compelling characters... The true crime is NOT reading this novel! * Ali Hazelwood,author ofThe Love Hypothesis *
A criminally addictive romance... this book is sheer perfection from beginning to end. Phoebe and Sam have a permanent spot on my list of favorite fictional couples * Rachel Lynn Solomon,author ofThe Ex Talk *

Fans of Christina Lauren and Rachel Lynn Solomon will adore this ode to true crime and its poignant message of opening your heart to love, even when that's the scariest thing of all * Amy Lea, author ofSet on You *
Love in the Time of Serial Killers is funny, sharp, and thoughtful * Sarah Hogle, author ofYou Deserve Each Other *
Smart, clever, and slow-burn steamy, Love in the Time of Serial Killers is a fresh, lovable rom-com that tackles facing our fear of not only the worst life can bring but the very best and being brave enough to take a chance on love * Chloe Liese, author of The Bergman Brothers series *
