Finding Elliott by R.J. Moray

4.0

I liked this. Only warning is that it ends in kind of a HFN, rather than a true like, standard romance novel HEA.

I really liked this. I loved to see Elliott realizing that what he thought a Dom/sub relationship is like is not right and that while everything is allowed consent is the most important. I also really liked the relationship between these three even though I wish there would have been more about Drew’s part in it. 

While the story first of is about Elliott and him healing from an abusive relationship, in the end it’s a poly relationship and therefor I would have liked more focus on that, not just in the epilogue.

Something that annoyed me a little is that thing about people saying Tom is „emotionally distant“. It never got talked about again and honestly I never had the feeling it was true anyway. Otherwise he would even have cared about seeing Elliott being mistreated and he probably wouldn’t have taken him home. I don’t know what the author wanted to do with this.

Something I loved was that she showed that you don’t have to understand the kinks of others because oftentimes we just can’t understand why people need certain things in their life and that’s ok.

Overall this was pretty good, especially for being quite short, and I would definitely read more from the author.
