Wow just wow. I knew this book was dark, but I didn’t expect it to be this dark. This book has a lot of triggering topics such as suicide, torture, murder, consensual non-consent, fire play, knife play, ect. Please read the author’s note before reading.
That being said, I really enjoyed this book. It wasn’t your typical smut book that there was little to no plot or it got lost. The plot was there and a big part of this book, and the smut was a great bonus. Along with the smut being a bonus, the scenes were explicit and left little room for imagination.
This book had some good plot twist, and some I definitely never saw of it coming. I can’t wait to start book two, and to see what happens next! I highly recommend this series, but again, please read the triggers.
