This book, the story of Sawyer and Enzo’s story is definitely one of my favorites of this year.
It is spicy (really really really), dark and also very tense.

Disturbing. Books like this are dangerous because they model abusive relationships romantically. Also just really bad.

Spoiler
The first shark scene was just lovely and I very much enjoyed seeing the growth of both of our main characters. I especially appreciated the written and clearly expressed acknowledgment of shorty behavior and genuine apologies to allow for Sawyer and Enzo to start up anew with a fresh start and work towards a healthy relationship now built upon a toxic foundation.Graphic: Blood, Panic attacks/disorders, Toxic relationship, Mental illness, Torture, Sexual assault, Sexual content, Murder, Violence, Sexual violence, Physical abuse, Death, Incest, Kidnapping, Rape, Child abuse, Emotional abuse, and Domestic abuse
