This was my very first "dark romance", and I am ADDICTED 🥵 This series was full of rightful trigger warnings and very heavy subject matter, but that did not slow me down as I could not put them down!! The spicy scenes were very evenly spaced and absolutely wild, I definitely felt like I had a reading-hangover after completion.

Despite how extremely dark this book is, it holds a place in my heart. The resilience Addie has and the portrayal of PTSD brought up emotions from my own past I wasn’t quite aware I was ready to face head on yet. A very healing read for me, which is probably not what I or anyone else would expect. Either way, I loved this book, and it’s getting a reread at some point so I can annotate the heck out of it.
I also would’ve rated 5 stars but I felt the conclusion was rushed.

dark tense fast-paced

This book is horrific, I had actual nightmares about it. The main character has been human trafficked as a sex slave and it is painful to read.

Just wow! When I finished this duet, I was so sad it was over. And, I was so stunned that I fell in love with a stalker. Definitely buckle up for a WILD freaking ride if you pick up this duet.
