The FMC gives me the ick and the MMC isn't much better. The whole book is very very grapey and a lot of it felt unnecessary but the reactions to it were even worse than the acts themselves.

This book had me pissed off literally the entire time. Struggled to finish. Probably a world record for the number of times the word cunt was used. Please tell me that the Sacrifice is better so I don't have to DNF the rest of the series. 🫠

This was sex with a sprinkle of plot. It also just felt like one bad thing after another happened to our FMC. I wanted to like it more. - the spice was spicy!

Abused girl. Childhood crush. Evil society that rules all. Ellington and Sin have dynamic chemistry but the plot and interactions between them were not my thing. He talks about how he’ll manipulate her to do anything, repeatedly messes with her head by saying he never wants her and she’s just a good fuck to then marry her?! Way too much mind games for my liking 🤷🏻‍♀️
