half a star knocked off because enzo needs anger management classes and he was a little too mean at times. i feel like there should’ve been a deeper reason for his anger/darkness, but i still really enjoyed the book and found every opportunity i could to read and finish it :)

I honestly had no idea what to expect outside of knowing this was dark romance. This is my first time reading H.D. Carlton and it didn’t disappoint. Was it packed full of triggers? Yes. So be wary of those and check before indulging.
Grumpy sunshine to the point that bully tropes were at play. From start to finish I was fully immersed and damn… it got hot in there 🥵
I’d definitely recommend this to fellow dark romance lovers. Enzo and Sawyer’s story is one that’s going to stick with me, and something I see myself revisiting and reading again.
