PWP. The audiobook didn’t have trigger warnings but it probably should. A bit too rapey for me (there’s no actual rape but I’d file under dub con at times). But if you like incredibly nieve woman is kidnapped by hot guy trope go for it.

booklover6000's review against another edition

This was the first dark romance book I picked up, to which in another review I stated, made me not want to pick another up. I felt like the character was too giddy and I had a sick feeling in my stomach. To which, doesn’t happen often. I think the plot wasn’t great and just, overall, couldn’t.

If you're looking fo some spicy content, it's in there. But the rest of the novel felt a little lackluster.

“The greatest thing I’ve ever done in my life was to love you, Wendy darling”

I enjoyed this. Wendy was a bit too “innocent” and naive for me, it was a bit eye rolling. I liked the twists at the end and the epilogue taking place two years later.
