The first 45% of this book is not a dark romance, it's just dark. Addie finds herself in an absolutely terrifying situation that is very hard to read about. The only reason I was able to keep pushing through was because I knew eventually the author was going to get her and Zaid back together. The second half of the book brings back the spice that I came to expect after reading the first book. However, the depiction of the Romance takes an especially dark turn in this novel. Obviously, Addy and Zaid have never had a normal relationship, but the depictions of violence against each other in this book were perhaps a bit too dramatic. I am not a fan of reading about knife play, so most of the spicy scenes were not for me. Overall, I really enjoyed the ending and I'm glad that Addie and Zaid got there "happily" ever after.
