 She’s 17 when they meet and he’s wanking to a live camera feed of her in her bedroom. Then waits till her 18th birthday to fuck her. But wanking to a 17 year old is weird. It was a weird book. It was uncomfortable. He was basically grooming her and she basically got Stockholm syndrome bc he locked her away for a full year. Again it was weird.

While there are some aspects I really don't like and were unnecessary (the women starting the book as a 17 year old virgins 😬) I find the characters lovable and the smut is good. I've reread it a several times, and I wish there was more. If you're into mafia/kidnapping smut, you'll like it. 

The audiobook is pretty good, his voice is great, hers takes some getting used to.

If you love dark possessive and caring Daddy romances this is a good book for you. The writing is a bit sloppy, but I liked how the woman's pleasure and safety were always prioritized, despite the whole kidnapping thing.

The end of this book is wild, and not in a good way.***Spoiler*** I hate when a kinky book ends in a super conventional marriage with kids, it always just feels like a waste.
