Why did I put it off this long?
**Please read trigger warnings before reading this book! It is a Dark Romance and contains a lot of triggering content!!**
I just want to start of by questioning why on earth I waited this long to read this book! I read the Lords books back in 2021, but after failing to get into this book back then I put it down and forgot about it (I was head over heels in love with the Lords and just couldn’t switch off from them to enjoy the story). But damn am I glad a bookish friend on Instagram gave me the motivation to get back into it!
So I went through this book with lots of questions. And I must admit I really really didn’t like Lavinia. Now I won’t lie I didn’t like her for most of the book. I don’t like the “I’m better than you because I’m from a rich family” personality. However, I personal felt her character grew a little bit nearer the end and as you learn more about what she’s been through you kind of relate a bit more.
I love the guys - Remy is just adorable in a very crazy bit totally relatable way - the way his character is portrayed and written is amazing, to be able to capture what is a real life condition in such a great and realistic way is amazing! Sy had me on the fence right up until the last few chapters. Nick on the other hand - now I know I should probably hate him, but I just can’t. We see the love and obsession his has for Lavinia through the Lords books, so I kind of expected this level of obsession and craziness. I get he’s done things that aren’t “good” but all he wants is for her to love him back.
I love the world building and character building. Each main character grows a bit on this book as well which is amazing! And I’m really excited to see what happens next.
I have a lot of questions that need answers and I’m excited to find out what they are.

Hmm I didn’t love this one as much as I did the lords. However I think the next two books might change my mind

So intense
Can't wait for the next book. This was a very dark intense read that is twisted And dark. This story is about Nicky and him getting the girl that HD has been watching over for 2 yrs and being a Duke. Their is something with having to understand the alpha and the angry and fighting to win. That's has this story so incredibly dark and steamy good.
