*banging desk vi0lently* I LOVE IT!!!
I have been waiting impatiently for Beckett and Eve story ever since I tasted the crumbs in Bad Intentions. And I am not disappointed with Dark Delights!
You can call this a modern-day Cinderella retelling. Eve is the daughter of the maid who works in Beckett's mansion and also the twin sister to Asher, Beckett's best friend. They first met when they were 13 and because she was in the wrong time and place, Beckett held a wrath toward Eve ever since. Fast forward to college year and another unfortunate event, Eve had to share a dorm room with Beckett. Things heat up (in a good and 'bad' way) after that 😏

I gotta say I love Beckett "6'5 broken unhinged possessive hockey player billionaire 🚩" Anderson akh!!! He came to be unhappy, angry, lost, and vulnerable at the same time, all because of what happened during his teenage years. The enemies to lovers between Beckett and Eve is immaculate. I love their tension, banters, angst, the longing, etc! I love the chemistry and how they connect to each other! Oh, and the grovel!!! *melt*
Overall 5 dark delightful stars!
