This was a very good (smutty) book, but MY GOD THE TRAUMA. My heart broke over and over for Roman and Leo, even as they healed and grew together. If you are not prepared to read some unflinching descriptions of homophobic violence, internalized homophobia, and PTSD, this might not be the book for you. If you can handle it, I highly recommend it.
