Thank you to Jagger Cole & VPR for the ARC!

This one was easily a 5 ⭐️ read! Jagger Cole doesn't miss!

Taylor Crown has a problem...
Turns out the man she shared her darkest and most depraved urges with on a new app made by an exlcusive kink club is Drazen Krylov, the ruthless leader of a bratva.

Drazen is bent on making Taylor pay for the terrible things she did in the past by forcing her to pretend to be his dead wife. But she can't remember anything at age 18 and before, when all that went down.

Thing is...Taylor looks exactly like her. Could she be her?

πŸ”₯ This book was intense!! I loved every moment of it. 🀩 the primal kink in this book was on all caps cause phew! Drazen is a very deranged man. πŸ₯΅πŸ˜› you bet the spice was SPICING.

πŸ€” The mystery behind Taylor's amnesia had me guessing with every hint! There was so much interwoven in Taylor's past that she forgotβ€”we're talking Bratva wars and politics! A hazy battle that the survivors only had pieces of the whole story of that must be unraveled. This was a whodunit but also a whoami because poor Taylor was having an identity crisis 😱

🀯 And the plot twists! There were so many. I was having such a blast screaming "I knew it!" at every one. 

πŸ’– I loved Taylor and Drazen. Drazen is an intense guy but Taylor isn't someone to be pushed around. She was fearless and headbutted him head on. Probably cause she was also into the *punishments*. Can't blame her. We were like "OH NO! 😱" to "oohhh nooo. πŸ˜›" 

I will say though, I enjoyed everything about this book, but it's not very heavy on the romance/emotional connection side. I would've loved to seen more softer/intimate bonding moments between the two. They've got AMAZING chemistry when it comes to the bedroom though. πŸ₯°

🏝 I'm also a sucker for an island setting. If there's gonna be a kidnapping I guess make it nice with and island getaway 🀭 (for legal reasons, this is a joke.)
