I enjoyed this so much and I usually hate RH and bully romances. Look I’m as shocked as you are, but this is  exciting and the fmc isn’t annoying and it has a plot! But please please please know yourself and read the trigger warnings.

Def one of the most brutal things I’ve ever read. When they gave those trigger warnings they should’ve emphasized the ENTIRE BOOK is the trigger. But somehow I enjoyed it deeply 😂
