WOW. I wanted dark and I got pitch black, middle of the forest on the longest day of the year with a blind fold on dark. I absolutely loved this, it’s dark, erotic, passionate, and poetic…there’s complicated emotions, turmoil, grief, desire and the most vile actions I have ever read. I can’t wait to crack open the next book, I feel like a fiend looking for their next score. I knew West was a snake, he rubbed me the wrong way from the start. Everleigh is so strong and resourceful. Bram oh Bram where do I even start with him, I knew it, that’s all I’ll say is that I knew it. Check your trigger warnings at the cover because this book will check every single one of them.
