challenging dark emotional sad tense fast-paced

4.5

Ok, I've been sitting with this book, heavily, on my mind for past few days trying to figure out how to rate this, how to review this. What the fuck did I read? Talk about book hangover.

I will start with this... The following is from the authors IG author page:

" About the book:

*VERY Dark
*Standalone with HEA
*Twisted and Kinky
*Sharing and Voyeurism
*Abuse and Violence
*Like seriously DARK, please don't read this $hit if you have any triggers"

Ok, did we read all of that? Yes.
Are we still going to read it? Yes.

This was honestly a really hard book to read. A lot is going on, a lot of pain, so much to deal with. The characters were brutal and the situation are horrendous.
This was the first book I read that went this far and I dont know why, but it captivated me to the point of doing absolutely nothing but devour this in a single day.
