“Over the years, we’ve weaved together the pain of love, the wrath of loss, and the mercy of forgiveness. This is what it means to love something more than yourself, and this is what we’ve created with it. Our own little Kingdom.”

Holy cheese balls, this is how you end a series! May I get an Hallelujah, please?

For such a dark series, it has a BEAUTIFUL ending!

This is definitely a darker series that has some pretty twisted scenes starting from the very beginning of book #1. Which, of course, the books warn you about before you even start reading them. Even knowing it involved non-con and such, I couldn't help but think "Yeah, this is still pretty much r@pe" and "Practically Stockholm Syndrome". I had no idea how these guys were going to be redeemable. Amazingly, in this book, they pretty much did just that. I just binge read these, and I still hardly know how they did it, but I know I fell in love with them all, which is crazy! To have such abusive, sadistic psychos show they can be sweet, caring, doting men was such an about face... but in a realistic way. The authors nailed this!

What a journey. It was nice to see these toxic boys learn to be gentler and sweet over the course of these three books. And satisfying to see Story grow a backbone! I actually cared for these fucked up characters and was rooting for them despite all the red flags lmao. 

I was not expecting the twist of who Ted was and genuinely the drama and mystery had me so invested. I needed to know what happened and it didn’t disappoint!! 

I could’ve done without the extended epilogue but overall a very entertaining and hot read
