What happened with Marcus? Why was that so randomly thrown in? And the whole concept of their drug was just an afterthought after the first quarter of the book.
The war seemed dumb. Also, everything gets halted or stalled because Aria can’t choose who she wants? Bffr.
It also was so long for no reason. So much could’ve been shortened down or redacted.

Carter Cross is a lunatic and I just couldn’t understand Aria’s love for him.

Carter is a selfish man who needs to grow a pair and get on with his life. Good smut, but not good enough to keep me reading this problem-ridden book.

I will typically forgive a lot of things in a romance if the romance itself is good but this feels so forced and I do not buy their chemistry. There were actually some moments where I thought this could be an interesting thriller but not a romance.

This is a dark romance with nice world building and well written characters. I was a bit hesitant at times about the romance but in the end I really liked both Aria and Carter and their character development.
Also, the formatting was so pretty, I love seeing pictures/art work in books. It makes the reading experience so much better.
I do recommend reading the content warnings before picking it up though.

♡ Dark Romance
♡ Forbidden Romance
♡ Dom/sub Relationship
♡ Angst with a Happy Ending
