If sa is something that could trigger you, skip some parts of this book. One of the main entertainment of Vere is some kind of “rape” with public (the aristocrats) but is fake. Although this is graphic but prepared, some pages might trigger some people. The torture is mentioned and, in some pages, you are going to read it, but it’s not as explicit as the sa.

I decided to read a sample of this book because I thought the cover was cool and immeditatley got hooked. I waited for three months to borrow the book from the library and finished it in one night. Due to the content of the book, I am a little hesitant to tell people I've read it, but I can't deny I'm a little obsessed. 

There were points that got a little confusing and didn't make sense, but the plot and dynamic between Laurent and Damen is so interesting that it didn't bother me enough to hinder the experience. 

This book can be a hit or miss. I enjoyed it despite the dark themes that were present. I think it ultimately depends on how much you want to avoid specific topics.
