“If she left me, I'm going to burn the whole fucking world down until I find her.”
“Your body can only feel one pain at a time. Because pain in the body quiets the pain in the head. It feels good, like a kill switch for your brain.”
“Life felt like hell, because we expected it to feel like heaven.”
“And I hated that I’d missed him. I hated that so fucking much. How I still felt the parts about him I loved when I didn’t know it was him I was with. How his arms around me still felt protective and how his whispers reminded me of when I loved the feel of them all over my neck.”

But I pushed through and it was still amazing. I loved digging into Damon's history and his relationship with Winter [Corrupt spoilers: even if it was traumatic at times]. Honestly though my favorite plot line was Damon and Will's relationship.

This book is confusing for my brain but I loved it. I don’t know how some things got redeemed but this book really does make you think. It’s very morally gray in a lot of areas and extremely dark so I would not recommend for everyone. It was so heartbreaking every step of the way.
Some parts were a bit too much or out of character or tied up too nicely but the good out balances the bad.
Winter is also my favorite lead women in this series so far. She is blind and I liked that Damon didn’t coddle her like a lot of others did. She was very determined, smart, strong, but also very caring. Their relationship was extremely messed up but they worked so well together. His relationship with Will too is my favorite.
If there wasn’t more in a series this book would provide me with a major book hangover and I’d be wandering around for a week or two trying to figure out what to read.

I loved Damon. I knew he was going to be redeem and I hope we would get reasons behind his actions. I liked that we saw that through his thoughts and some of is interactions but I also wanted him to open up a bit and explain himself to his chosen family. I loved him and Will and I loved him and Winter, and even Winter by herself. I don't know if the author did a good job of narrating her perspective but I just felt so much empowering from her. I know I don't like that word, and those type of characters that are really in your face about how badass they are. Maybe because I don't feel a lot like that. I still liked how there were no limits to her and how Damon helped her.
I can't believe we didn't get more scenes about what went down with Will and Damon, though. I was really hoping that would happen and when it did I just loved that they had each other even when they wanted someone else. At leas it wasn't all shallow. Loved them.
And I can't believe Penelope went for the domesticity right away with Kai and Damon. I like the happy ever after but not right now. They're so young. Not that they can't want that, it just makes me think about what I would want if I were them and children just scare me. I hope we get their stories and I know thy will be kinky and a handful with the parents they have. They all deserve to have crazy children with all the stuff they do without thinking of the consequences. They're entitled and they know it and enjoy it. It's a good fantasy and makes good material for a story but, man, I would hate them in real life.
Ans this is the review I write when I know no one is going to read it.
