An excellent romantic suspense!

The Night Blossoms is a standalone, romantic suspense story. The hero, Rafael, was introduced in Attar’s book The Paper Swan, but you don’t need to read The Paper Swan to read this story. The hero from The Paper Swan, Damian, is a part of this book, but the story hardly references anything from The Paper Swan and because of that, I feel like this really is a true standalone. The storytelling in The Night Blossoms reminds me quite a bit of The Five by Lily White - the POV from the heroine is told in the present and the POV from the hero is told from the past, with both storylines piecing the mystery together for the reader. Unlike The Five, I did not have any idea “whodunnit” until very shortly before it was revealed. Attar’s storytelling is intricate and her writing is beautiful, and I loved this book because of it. The solo narration by Stephen Dexter worked fine for me because this book is more like a romantic suspense rather than an er0tic romance. I highly recommend this book!

Not as good as the Swan story.

It was good, the writing is excellent. The story was not my favorite. It’s more of an intricate mystery than a love story. It was hard for me to keep track of all his women, who was who.. at one point I almost felt like I needed to start over.. I couldn’t remember how he met V. It was frustrating because I was so lost most of the time but the writing is so good I would still recommend the story.
