Sacred and profane were blending and blurring together, fusing and welding themselves into something new and whole and singular, and if this was what love was, then I didn’t know how anyone could bear the weight of it.
I'll be completely honest... I expected all smut, no plot for this but boy was I wrong. I was completely captivated by Tyler's journey of finding himself and his connection with Poppy. It was fascinating to read from his POV and the writing was really good! I felt connected and invested the whole time. Some dark themes and intense spice so def read content warnings, but I really really enjoyed this book!
