dark emotional fast-paced

4.5

This is graphic, there are very very graphic depictions of abuse. There are copious trigger warnings at the start of the book, please take them seriously. Less violent than the first book of the series, but more graphic.

That said, this is a book of healing. Specifically, healing through both inner peace and a sense of community. This healing process is pretty linear so you have to move through all of the abuse before any of the good feels get started.

Loving the trend in the series so far of the epilogue being told from the POV of the opposite partner to the rest of the book!
