One Killer Night

To Die For, Book 1

De: Trilina Pucci

Narrado por: Samantha Brentmoor, Grayson Owens

“Whip smart and hilarious! Pucci is well on her way to literary domination.”—Abby Jimenez, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Just for the Summer.

USA Today bestselling author Trilina Pucci cranks up the heat in this sexy slasher filled with dark family secrets, classic horror tropes, and banter as sharp as a deranged killer’s knife.

Love is patient.

Love is kind.

Love will stab you from behind.

It’s Halloween night, and out-of-work writer Goldie Monroe’s trip to the drugstore scares up more than the fake blood she’s looking for. It leads to the man of her naughtiest dreams. And in spite of her costume, sparks fly from the moment they meet.

Noah Adler, aspiring sneaker designer, is impossibly gorgeous—like a tatted-up version of Goldie’s favorite blue-eyed vampire. He’s there for candy, but it’s Goldie he can’t resist. When she invites him to her sister’s F/X company bash, he’s all in without a second thought.

The pair’s flirty connection heats up fast, carrying them to electrifying new heights. But after Goldie discovers Noah is hiding a dark secret, it all starts to crumble. Looking for answers about her own past awakens new dangers, and when Goldie and Noah land at a slasher camp for adults, a deadly tragedy threatens to repeat itself. If they can survive this one killer night, they can definitely slay a happily ever after.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Original, clever, fully engaging, and skillfully written from start to finish, One Killer Night by author and storyteller Trilina Pucci is a sexy suspense thriller of a novel that is a compulsive page turner of a read from cover to cover.”—Midwest Book Review

“Trilina Pucci blends romance, humor, and slasher-style suspense into a fast-paced, addictive read that has made her an auto-buy author for me…Pucci delights in lulling readers into the comfort of what feels like a spicy rom-com—only to slip in moments of creeping dread that land all the harder…Side characters like Goldie’s no-nonsense sister, Evie, and Noah’s ridiculously over-the-top best friend, Chase, add comic relief while also leaving readers eager to hear their stories. Sexy, scary, and funny, One Killer Night is a wild, thrilling ride that I didn’t want to end.”—Washington Independent Review of Books

“Trilina Pucci crafts one of the most unforgettable meet-cutes I’ve ever read!”—Women’s Health

Fantastic! Fantastic! Fantastic!

Narration, obviously always on point with Samantha B. Grayson Owens did a GREAT job as well! They really brought these characters to life and gave them depth! Loved the eerie, slasher-y vibes with this one! Not your typical TP novel and I’m here for it! Can’t wait for “Evil is Forever!” What a cliffhanger!

took a little bit, but worth it

I felt like everything was all over the place in this book at first and was getting lost and losing interest I'm glad I stuck with it though. Once I got into the book more, I got hooked and couldn't put it down.

My god

I’ve loved every book by Trilina that I’ve read but oh my lord. This one is special. “Narrated by Samantha Brentmoor and Grayson Owens” was what first attracted me to me, then I read the blurb. I LOVED how twisty and goofy this book was, and every scary movie references had me saying “OH! I know that one!” So so good!! And book two is just going to be SOOO good!!!

ALL THE STARS

aw on the floor!! I am shook!! The twist at the end blew my mind!! Once I started I could not stop!! The anticipation of what was going to happen had me on the edge of my seat!! I am obsessed!! This is a must read!

I went into this completely blind and I highly recommend doing it!! Not knowing what was going on was the best part!! Goldie and Noah were so sweet it made my teeth hurt!! And the meet cute?! I will never forget it!! I loved them so freaking much! I also loved how we got to see them completely fall for each other!! And lets not forget about the sister and best friend!! Evie and Chase (especially Chase) had me rolling with laughter! The suspense had me hooked and no matter how hard I tried I did not figure it out! I am still shocked by the twist this book took! This story had my heart pumping and I enjoyed every second of it!! ALL THE STARS!

AUDIO: This was narrated in duet by Grayson Owens and Samantha Brentmoor and I have no notes! They had me laughing out loud and then holding my breath from suspense!! I could not stop listening! One of my favorites of the year!

Woowwwzers

So I knew it would be a good listen when o see who the narrators were. If you don’t know, check out their other work. But this book was sooooo gooooood. Twists. Turns. I am usually so good at predicting plots but this one got me good. Definitely looking forward to book 2. Cus there’s gotta be a book 2!!

Goldie and Noah

I loved this story and was all in from page one. This rom-com thriller is fun, steamy, and the suspense had me on the edge of my seat.

Goldie’s night takes a wild turn when she stops at Walgreens on Halloween wearing a big inflatable T-Rex costume. She doesn’t expect to meet Noah, a hot, funny guy who looks like Damon Salvatore. From the moment they meet, their chemistry is electric. After some laughing and flirting, Noah finds himself meeting up with Goldie at a Halloween party. Things seem to be going well until they aren't. Strange stuff starts happening, and Goldie learns that Noah has secrets from his past that could ruin everything.

I went into this book without reading the blurb, and I am SO glad I did. This story felt like a perfect mix between a '90s romantic comedy and a classic slasher movie. I am OBSESSED. I loved Goldie and Noah together. Their banter was so fun, and I couldn't help but root for them. I also fell completely in love with Evie and Chase and need more of them STAT. The twists and turns kept me locked in. I tried to figure out who was behind it all, but I definitely didn't see the plot twist coming. I am STILL thinking about the ending, and can't wait to find out what happens in the next book.

Narration:
Samantha Brentmoor and Grayson Owens performed this audiobook in duet, and honestly, I couldn't have asked for a better pair to bring this story to life. Samantha and Grayson are two of the best, and were the perfect voices for Goldie and Noah. Listening to their performances was an absolute treat!
