10/10 story line and characters. What I got lost with was all of the sudden she was comfortable with all 7 characters? Being a V, I wish the attention of that would have played out longer. I had thought I missed several chapters. Also not into the MM but worth the read so far.

This book is straight-up juvenile. You know when you read something that makes you cringe, roll your eyes, and scream: Is this book for real?! BUT if you overall look at it, it's actually not that bad, and the whole absurdity just adds to its entertainment value and makes things interesting? Yep, this book is kinda like that. The drama just goes on and on and on and there are so many akward moments, but I can't put it down since it's entertaining in its own way.

The writing quality isn't the best, but it's arguably not the worst as well. I may read the next book just for fun. I think it's important to mention that I'll be reading this series as a palette cleanser. I've read two series in a row that both have deaths of major characters. I think I need the classic  psycho/obsessive/possessive alphaholes. Don't get me wrong, this book is dark but not like quality dark (if you get what I mean).

For the main question: do you recommend this book? If you're into dark stories, classic psycho guys trope, and you don't mind a bit juvenile and sloppy writing quality... then I think you'll enjoy this book. Happy reading!

I finished this new year's day and had literally forgotten everything about it within hours of putting it down.

This is a RH novel with 7 , that's right, SEVEN suitors. This I think is the largest RH that I have read as far as participants and I found that it was hard to keep track of all of them. This first book did feel a bit rushed and I am left with a lot of questions. I will continue to read the series to seek the answers as I see a lot of potential in the storyline and smut scenes. Also read the trigger warnings as you don't want to recommend this book to your mom!

OMG holy spicy awesomeness. I’m already obsessed with Creed. The mystery, suspense, and intensity only adds to the page turning yumminess. I can’t wait to see what book two holds!

3.5/5 spice

I felt this was a very paint by number dark RH romance. All the right parts were there but it just felt really shallow and bleh. It was tough to understand a lot of the character motivation and reactions.

There was one really good spice scene but the rest was meh. I will be giving the second book a try to hook me into the series. It was, at its base, mindlessly entertaining.
