all the secrets, the lust, the twisted and losts souls.
I am not a religious person but the notion of prohibition, of sin are well described. And you can appropriate them to see how much everything is f*uckup.
Aero is as a stalker psycho as I like.
I understand that some find similarities with the first book of Haunting Adaline. And I agree. But the story is really far from it.

Blurb: Fornication is a sin.Ā
As it reads, we should flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.Ā
They teach us that these thoughts, these actions, are immoral. But that dark side that lives inside all of us, the true nature of man, drives us to seek the need that burns within, demanding to be set free. Deep inside of our bones lies that intrinsic need, one desperate to escape. An innate behavior, seemingly out of our control.Ā
One that screams for sins they tell us are condemning.Ā
Aero is the throat from which I scream.Ā
The dark parts of myself I want hidden from this world are all he sees when he gazes at me beneath yet another mask.Ā
Heās the demon drowning me in my own underlying desires.Ā
He may never stop. Not until I succumb to my truths, or die beneath the weight of his unrelenting grasp.Ā
Because according to him, the life Iāve been living is a hell far worse than death.Ā
My Thought: OH. MY. GAWD. š„µš„µ...
Jescie Hall knows how to write dark romance. Her writing is the epitome of
Dark.
Tragic.
Deliciously depraved & devasting.Ā
I couldn't help but become consumed by Hall's writing and Aero. Aero is such a domineering, broody, take no shit force of a man and I loved every single part of him. I really enjoyed the twists and turns and suspense through out this amazing heart stopper. I literally had to rub my thighs together while reading this book.Ā
I also really enjoyed Briony which kudos for an original name, one that I personally love. Briony may be the so called "intended victim" but she's a total badass. She doesn't sit around crying over the life she had day after day, unāøwilling to fight for herself. No, she does grieve the life she thought she was suppose to have but then she decides she's going to fight for her future and Aero does what he always promised, he helps her bloom into the rose she was always meant to be.Ā
I loved seeing Aero and Briony break down one another's walls and fall into chaos together. There's something so beautiful and raw in knowing someone's most inner demons and yet not running from that person but embracing all the ugly, broken parts. This book will haunt me quite possibly for the rest of my life. I highly recommend this book as well as Jescie Halls other books.Ā
