I received this book as an ARC from the author in exchange for an honest review.

This book is a great read, the author has done a wonderful job. Writing style is really good, it's easy to read even tho book has very dark themes going through (definitely read trigger warnings before starting this book cos it's not for everyone).
I think this is the most diverse book I've ever read since it has a plus size main character as well as POC and people of LGBTQ+, so honestly well done to the author for being so inclusive. 
I wish the author spent more time on describing characters because they sometimes feel a bit flat, especially Cy, Ember and Sage. I just couldn't visualize the scenes with them as well as others like with Griffin or Jules. I wanted more description of their personalities, visual appearance and background. 
I didn't notice if this is mentioned anywhere but this book has some BDSM elements (male sub and Mistress) so if you don't like it, this book probably is not for you. Not gonna lie this part took away one star for me, otherwise it would've been a 5/5 read. I love BDSM and different kinky stuff like that but for whatever reason male subs aren't my thing. 

If you are okay with the triggers and like RH, you should definitely read this book!
