5.0
4.5 stars
- FMC: Remington (aka Remi; aka Raven)
- MMC's: Grayson, Jasper, Vander, Cole, Ravenmaster (stalker) (who is probably one or more of the four guys)
- POVs Included: Single Female POV (Remington)
-----------------------------------
-----------------------------------
SUMMARY: (SPOILER WARNING)
Remi has always had a darkness inside of her. But after she accidentally kills a man who tries to rape her, she finds the darkness in her is getting too hard to suppress. Because she liked killing him and she wants to do it again.
As she works to figure out her darkness, dangerous and intriguing men surround her. She's enjoying the attention and how each of them gives her something that helps feed her darkness. Especially the mysterious stalker who has taken to mentoring her on how to kill without getting caught.

REVIEW:
I absolutely loved this one. It was so much fun. I'm a HUGE fan of dark romances where the FMC is the psycho killer. Don't know why, but I love it.
Also this story checks so many boxes for me. It mashes up several tropes I'm a huge fan of: bodyguard, serial killer, stalker, arranged marriage, etc. There's so much to love here.
And I love how each of her guys seems to embrace her darkness and helps her along the way.
But there are definitely things going on here that we don't see on the surface. Each of the guys seems to know things about Remi and her darkness. And I just have this gut feeling that they all are working together behind the scenes somehow. The way they are strangers but seemingly okay with her attraction to the others, hushed conversations between them, passing comments etc. I just have a feeling there's more than meets the eye here.
As far as her stalker (Ravenmaster) goes, I'm loving this aspect too. I suspected it was one of the four guys -- at first I thought it was Vander and then I thought maybe Grayson. But as time went on I get the feeling it's actually all four of them. Especially because of a comment the stalker makes near the end.
The steam is smoking hot too. I loved how open and unapologetic Remi is when it comes to sex. She is also honest with all of them about wanting the others. I love that.
The scenes we got were steamy. But my favorite was definately the scene at the shooting range with Jasper while Vander was watching. So hot!
But the scene at the end was good too. I think the one who came to the warehouse was Grayson and the pierced cock picture was Cole. My theory. :)
Overall I'm loving this. So fun and hot and I love all the guys and the mysteries going on. I can't wait to see what happens next!

I really loved this book for like 80% of it. I liked that the main character was a rich basic girl with a blood lust. There wasn’t much of a plot, I figure it was just getting all the characters together for the rest of the series. The writing was decent but some dialogue was cringy (outside of what was meant to be). The love interest I liked the most was hardly in the book (jasper) and I fucking hated the ending. Not the cliff hanger just that the stalker sent someone else to have sex with her and we don’t know who either of them are. Ew.

This book is a must for anyone who likes their romance on the darker side. Remi is a great FMC she is strong, sassy and just the right amount of unhinged! She is trying to navigate her way through her world while coming to terms with the fact that she doesn’t feel any emotions when she meets not 1 but 5 men who suddenly have her feeling things she has no idea of. She is drawn to their darkness the same way they are drawn to hers. The cliffhanger at the end is a killer, I can’t wait to read book 2!

Wow this book was just wow. From page 1 to the end it had me turning page after page I couldn't stop there was always something happening on the next page. There are triggers so heed the warnings.
Remi doesn't feel the emotions like normal people do until she's nearly raped and realizes there's been a darkness that's been living dorment inside and as she deals with her would be attacker she comes alive for the first time and realizes she loves it and maybe she's not dead inside after all.
That's all I'm saying this book man was just so damn good I can't wait for the next. This is Rh and the guy's in here are some sexy alpha motherf*kers they each bring something different to the party and I have a feeling they definitely know more than they're saying.
I would absolutely recommend this book for those lovers of RH, dark, alphaholes, suspense, and some hot af kinky sexy scenes. Phew talk about hot
