It’s ok, the spice is good but that’s really it, plus the scenes are hard to imagine, like the way they are described.

Literally the first ever dark romance I picked up! It's absolutely very dark and not for the faint of heart (please take the trigger warnings seriously) but it was so bad that it was GOOD! Some scenes very much stay with you after you finish the book 😳 the writing is okay, it's nothing jaw dropping but I was really enjoyed this book and how dark it is!!
