I know in that moment, I would die for this woman. I’d carve up bodies, pluck out eyeballs, go to jail, hell, I’d do anything for her. I’m so fucking in love with Daisy Murray that my heart can’t seem to stop ballooning as I stare at her.
 
If you read The Mindf*ck Series and wished it was a RH, this book is for you! There’s an unhinged FMC coming back for revenge against the town that tried to sacrifice her and the men who embrace her bloody revenge campaign and turn out to be just as unhinged as her. I loved watching the world burn around them.
 
I loved Daisy and her men – best friends from childhood who were broken by her death and the subsequent erasing of her life. We are given glimpses of the way each dealt with the trauma, how it shaped their adulthood, and how Daisy’s return from the grave filled their cracks and made them whole. They did not balk at her crazy, instead vowing to be anything she needed—her demons to control, her dark knights.
 
Fast-burn and very spicy with extensive explicit depictions of darker kinks (dubcon, somno, primal, blood, knife, corpse play, etc.). There are MF and group scenes. Lots and lots of group scenes.
 
There are very dark elements and themes, so I recommend checking the TW/CW if you have any.  If you’re like me and have no triggers (or have learned to push through things that make you uncomfortable), jump in blind. It’s an amazing and surprising experience!
 
This is one of my top reads of the year, and I highly recommend it!
