The roller coaster of emotions I went through while reading this book, left me dizzy (in a good way). This was not just a normal dark romance, at some parts it left me completely shocked and confused as to who the villain was, and at other parts it was so lovely and had me in tears for their love. Just wow.

the audiobook really enhanced my experience. at first it felt really slow and than going fast. it’s a lower three stars to be but i do think the boy-obsessed trope was done well. however, they plot at times seemed to get away from it all. also the “growling” i could not take him seriously at all

I really enjoyed this book but the lack of thorough tw that are needed for this book is extremely disappointing and made me dock a star. The vague tw are not appropriate for a book that contains rape and CSA. I really love this author and that caught me way off guard.

Ok, I went into this book completely blind. All I knew was that it was dark, a hockey romance and had a shopping list of trigger warnings. Tick, tick and a big ol’ tick!! This book was fantastic. I truly felt all of the emotions from the characters. It did feel like a bit of a puzzle at times, trying to piece together what happened. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because…

Lachlan found Lyla aka De-lil-ah way too easy. I feel like the angst of that scenario could have been prolonged and we could have delved a little deeper into the past as well as into the three years she was MIA but overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this one.

DEAR GOD i think I finally found my first 6 star book 😭‼️ I’m completely obsessed with Lyla and Lochlone’s story. I was hooked from beginning to end and best believe I balled my eyes out when we figure out her backstory about why she’s so closed off with people and doesn’t get too attached to anyone other than her best friends. I’m so glad that she was able to get her justice and that the fucker who ruined her and other peoples lives is gone for good. My thoughts are everywhere atm so writing them out is gonna take too long lol but this is a book I will forever recommend to people and make sure to check tw !
