You know that feeling...
The feeling where you and some of your close friends, at a party and you all let your curiosities get the better of you at that young, explorative age, and you take yourselves off somewhere "private" and have some "fun", exploring, doing all the things you know are verging on taboo/no go..., then when you all reach that climax, and all starts to go quiet and the smell lingers, panting calms to breathing and the silence of the house is deafening... and you get that feeling that you're going to be facing a pretty awkward morning...
Yeah?
Then that's the feeling you get after finishing this book..
Does that mean I hate this book? HELL, no!!!
If you know that feeling, and you didn't feel shame...(whatever your memory is), then this book is for you.
If you don't know that feeling or felt shame, then YOU are not right for this book.
For God's sake, read the blurb, know your limitations, and read if you are happy to touch the very edge of cringe, steamy writing, and falling for them in their own ways. It's not that deep!
Offended by my review, don't read the book.

Credence by Penelope Douglas – A Genre-Defying Romance Worth the Ride
Let’s just start by acknowledging the obvious: Credence by Penelope Douglas isn’t your typical romance. And that’s exactly why I’m here writing about it.
I’ve read quite a few of Douglas’s works—Punk 57, The Devil’s Night series—and while she's often tagged as a "dark romance" author, Credence lives somewhere between the lines. It defies neat categorization. It’s not quite dark enough to sit beside Haunting Adeline, yet it doesn’t belong in “traditional romance” either. If anything, it feels like romantic fiction with deep emotional undertones and a setting that pushes boundaries.
