So most authors would have stopped after big save our girl and burn down the whole town event, not in this book, I went almost feral seeing there was like 15% of the book left. Not having to make up a smutty-ever-after and getting to see some of the more warm and fuzzy moments was the cherry on top of this morally grey spicy mafia sundae. 

I hear a lot of “this book has no plot” with Den of Vipers. Well ya, it’s much more character driven. We have that coming of age like element with our fmc and she becomes a fiery badass and the growth of all the boys. And if you’re not happy with the plot being smut, “how dare you look at her”, and revenge; pick another book

Please remember to read the trigger warnings before diving in. The triggers in this book do extend past the bedroom/kinks.

The overall plot kinda gave me haunting Adeline vibes. Which is the worlds biggest compliment for a book. However the last 25 percent of the book they were doing it every chapter. Kinda set me back. Like I wanted the plot back the spice was great dont get me wrong but at one point it just was a little extra if that makes sense.

The book was kinda long for what it is. Got a little repetitive but all in all it’s an okay book if this is what you are looking for. Definitely spicy!!

I like dark romance! I like the taboo villain stories and stuff like that. I even like it when they push the envelope. So my review stars are not just pearl clutching ok. 

I enjoyed reading this book well enough, but it had so many problems with editing where it was contradicting previous plot elements. It also had some really cringe inducing word choices in places that just were not for me. 

It was darkly fun, and I liked a few of the characters a lot, but honestly I don't see a lot to draw me back to it or to the author again? I'm almost certain that if I wanted to read dark erotic romance in this vein I could find it with a little more attention to detail.
