***SPOILERS*** Brief discussion of rape, although the word “rape” is never used. The main character is told that her fiancé (who has basically taken her hostage) is going to rape her. She has to plan how to get out of the situation. There is domestic violence/violence against women committed against the main character and her sister by their father. There is a part toward the end where the main characters sister commits suicide. Mentions of blood and injury throughout the book although it’s not too graphic.glorytowers05's review against another edition

oh, there were so many twists and turns! some i could see coming and others were a huge surprise. still, i'm left with a lot of questions left unanswered but i think that might be cleared up when i read the sequel.
sometimes, scarlett annoyed me due to how defenseless and naive she thought her sister donatella to be. it felt more like her projecting since she's the eldest and has had to protect her sister from their abusive father since their mother abandoned them. i feel for her but at the same time, it felt a little repetitive since that seemed to be her main concern with her sister until the history between her grandma and legend was revealed. i didn't like donatella though. i think in the epilogue we're
supposed to feel sorry for her but i just felt annoyed.
really pissed me off actually.
it took me a while to realize julian was going to be the love interest, but once i did i was all for it. i could tell he had a lot more secrets than he was hinting at yet my mind ran wild with possibilities after scarlett
4.5 stars from me (:

Moderate: Stalking
Minor: Rape
the sisters’ father is an awful person and the cause of many content warnings. the rape is only attempted and is more a version of coercion than sexual assault, the mc does not lose even one article of clothing if you were wondering how severe that scene is.mir_frog73's review against another edition
