The relationship between the main couple is iffy in the beginning. Why Iโ€™m all for enemies to lovers I do find it uncomfortable when it has sexual assault and extreme bullying and basically just abuse. I donโ€™t find that redeemable. However this book is certainly not the worst use of this and somehow the author manage to make the man somewhat redeemable.

  • Cliffhanger - I don't think I'll be reading the rest of the series.
  • High school, dark bully romance - not my cup of tea; I read it for the lingerie scene.
  • Sloane was badass, but not really. I didn't like how easily she submitted to Dorian. I wish she'd put up more of a fight.
  • The guys ganging up on Sloane and sexualising her was quite off-putting (to be expected of a dark romance, but yeah; wish she'd put up more of a fight instead of almost having sex with Dorian)

RE-READ: 3 ๐ŸŒŸ 
  • Tolerated the characters more. There were a lot of characters so it was confusing. But, I liked it when they finally felt amicable towards each other. 
  • Somewhat found family (?) - it was on its way towards found family.
  • Still not interested enough to read the sequel.
