Sarebbe dovuto essere un 3.5 ma non riuscivo veramente a metterlo giù, non vedevo l'ora di andare avanti. Peccato per lo sviluppo della storia, perché avevo aspettative diverse.

It was so bad, I wanna give you a zero, but that‘s not possible, so I give you a one.

Diese Geschichte ist dafür geschrieben worden, von jedem Verlag abgelehnt zu werden und es ist meiner Meinung nach ein Wunder, dass sich tatsächlich jemand dachte, sie wäre es wert, veröffentlicht zu werden.
Ich wünschte, Penelope würde sich und mir von ihren Einnahmen eine Langzeit-Therapie finanzieren, denn die braucht jeder, der sich durch diesen Schrott gequält hat. Mein Beileid an alle, die es bis zum Ende durchgezogen haben.

The overall plot was pretty interesting. The spicy scenes were written well. However, the men are all super predatory towards women. I figured cuz it’s a dark romance this might be the case, but it makes it very hard to like the characters when they’re actually horrific human beings in the story lol. Not many redeeming qualities for the male characters. The MMC in this book was the most morally acceptable male character, but even he got off easy after the damage he caused (iykyk)
