ari_bryce's review against another edition

The fact that the male MC built a whole company to rid the world of pedophiles and human traffickers and then goes on to rape Adeline twice in the 40% that I read. And he knows he didn't have her consent, the chapter after the second race starts with him thinking that exact thought...

This is a book that's extreme hyped on social media, and I guess I expect more? It was kinda slow, but also kinda relaxing? 
I liked the c-plot the most. I was deeply invested in knowing who killed Adeline's great-grandmother. The ghost-vibes was a nice touch.

I also liked Parson Manor. It was described perfectly! 
I think Adeline was an okay FMC. I really don't see the hate for her. Zade was also okay, although unhinged lol.

Will be diving right into Hunting Adeline🫣

This book takes rough sex to a whole new level and wasn’t the usual dirty read. There are definitely aspects that had great plot and allowed for you to truly get two views of the characters, dark and light. I did the audio version of this book and throughly enjoyed it, even if I was gripping my steering wheel in confusions, disgust, or anticipation for most of it.
