DNF.
I didn't hate it. I just really, really didn't like it. It was completely unromantic and I felt slightly uncomfortable. Just slightly; but it was there.

Meh. Nothing special. Sometimes the grammar was bad. For two authors with books under their belt, this seemed a little low in quality.

This book was just what I needed after my last read. It was sweet and sultry but also unconventional. It added to my allure of "what would you do if the lights went out." I thoroughly enjoyed this story and the love that Parker and Mia finally succumbed to. They both were unsure of what would happen if they joined Society X but their curiosity got the better of them. Well faith decided to work in their favor they were finally brought together. They have a small bump (I didn't like Zac from the get-go but I also didn't understand what he was trying to do) but they deal with it. I loved the dark room scenes. They weren't to over the top, they just added that unique intrigue. It was definitely the spice that I needed.

Not at all what I was expecting, but I like it!

I was expecting an alpha male, some BDSM, two strangers anonymously having sex and deciding they "want more," then launch into a citywide search for one another(?)... maybe...? I don't know, I was not expecting two childhood friends (almost high school sweethearts), a sweet, "nice guy" billionaire, and light 'n easy sex scenes. The whole thing: tone, story, characters, it was all so far from my expectations going in, but it really wasn't a turn off for me. I enjoyed the story.

I was disgruntled that it ended so quickly. It was a quick read I devoured in one afternoon sitting.

Just what I needed!

What a great read! A novel i didn't realize I needed until I finally read it! A little bit of mystery and a lot of good feels! Thank you!

Hot and sexy. Great story line. Kind of a cliche disagreement to cause drama. But overall good story.

I was certainly surprised with this book, it wasn’t what I was used to read by Heidi McLaughlin but her pairing with L.P. Dover made this story absolutely wonderful. I enjoyed every page of it. I couldn’t even really tell where one author wrote and then the other, I was so deep into the story that it just flowed by. Parker and Mia are certainly a couple I fell in love with. The mystery behind the Dark Room made their relationship start in a way like no other, they didn’t know anything about them, telling would break the rules and they both wanted to be a part of Society X just to see each other, but reality outside everything where real issues they have to overcome.

It is certainly not a story you will find predictable, on the contrary, I found it very interesting and with a lot of depth behind everything the characters did. I truly recommend this book for anyone, if you are a fan of either author is a must, but if you haven’t read any of them, this is a book you want to click on and start reading.
