I wish I had DNF’d this half way through. This may have deterred me from ever reading something by this author. I know this was a dark fairytale but it never felt believable in that way to me. The romance and spicy scenes were pretty cringy and honestly unbelievable as well. It seemed so empty (which may be the point but it left me not really enjoying this story). Also, and this is my own fault, I should have read the trigger warnings. And thanks to this book I have a new one.
