The MMC and the MFC had a bit of a forbidden romance but this book is so much more than that. This was an incredible story about healing after a traumatic event and trying to feel normal in a world that’s changed for you.
This is called a dark romance but it’s more of a dark story with dark themes and a touch of romance. It was unexpected of how hooked I got to this story and how much I actually cried. I’m not a book cryer and I cried thrice and teared up several times after. The writing was beautiful and none of it was cheap to the storyline or the characters integrity. Yes there was smut but there was also opposite end of SA etc. I encourage everyone to read the trigger warning list before diving into this story. It was heavy and beautiful and completely terrifying. I experienced so many emotions with this story and before I even finish the book, I knew I would give it 5 stars. I rate my books based on how they made me feel by the end of it. The many emotions had me feeling like I KNEW the characters and I could even relate to them with their healing and their nonlinear journey. This is a masterpiece. I will be reading Lotus next however I will be reading a palette cleanser before I jump back into the heaviness.
