3.0

The book itself regarding the writing of the story and characters as well as those things itself was good. It just wasn’t for me and though I often enjoy dark romance I just couldn’t get comfortable how they sexualised her fear. I get that spark that comes with a little fear play but I feel like sometimes the female mc was just straight up frightened and I couldn’t get behind how someone would find joy in that or how she could be turned on herself. Also a big point for me is the miscommunication I mean if they would’ve just talked a lot of things would’ve turned out drastically different. In the end it definitely is a good book I simply couldn’t identify with the morals of the characters which made me not being able to enjoy the book and also not read any further books in the series.

The 85% mark/ chapter 25 part of this book gets five stars and will live rent free in my head for awhile 😌

This book is supposed to be dark romance about these men that want to get revenge on this girl that made some of them go to jail a few years ago. My problem with it was that it wasn’t really that dark and if you are gonna go there then go big. I would have preferred to see more stuff they did to mess with her and the others pushing Michael’s limits more. I also think that Rika should have saved herself more in a few scenarios since that seemed like kind of the point. It’s a fun read if you throw your morals out of the window.
