5.0

I needed an audiobook while driving home, and it's a 6-7 hour car ride, so it needed to be an exciting book. I picked up this book, and it's my first Kent. This is like a secondary series; the parents have their books, too, but this is where I started. I cannot get enough of this series, and I'm trying to stay with the audiobooks because I love them so far, and it's helping me not just devour it book after book. This book focuses on Glyndon and Killian, and it is so dark! I honestly had no clue how these two would end up together because they were completely random; they couldn't stop fighting, and he loved tormenting her. It always felt like something new would happen whenever they finally started to get on the same page and shatter everything they created between them. But eventually, they could work through their many issues and make things work. I got Tessa/Hardin vibes but on a whole new level.

It’s okay for dark romance but as far as stabby stabby goes there wasn’t enough gore in my personal opinion 😅. Anywho the plot was good. Too many characters to keep up with.

Oh this book is oh so amazing. It's so well written. Be ready to fall head first for the villain. And definitely check your TWs.

Killian is a true psychopath. His obsession is Glyndon. He will stop at nothing to process her. 

Tropes: noncon/dubcon, dark
