Writing could use some editing mostly just for spelling mistakes though because it was written well overall and the prose flowed nicely in places. Overall a dark and twisted setting with a bit of mystery and a dark underbelly. Liked Alistair & Briar overall and how their story built up gradually but felt both their backstories could use a little more depth and the end felt a bit rushed. Spicy and a decent plot.

This book felt very insta-lusty between the mc’s since they only saw each other once or twice before they thought of the other sexually. This is a dark bully romance involving murder and gore, so check the tw’s!!
