5.0
This was my second read of the series and on reflection, there is actually quite a bit less on page sex and specifically much less heavy BDSM than I remember from the first read through. Not that it is not there, but the emotional growth and plot carries the bulk of the book, rather than being spice held together by the wisp of a plot. The way Alexis Hall makes you love these deeply flawed and imperfect characters through their imperfection is simply masterful.
Alexis Hall is my all time favorite author and this is one of, if not my favorite series from him. 👏🏻
