A dark, twisted ride through obsession, trauma, and messy love. The Filth Kings pulled me into a gritty world full of broken people trying to find healing through even more broken means. The pacing starts a little uneven—there’s a lot thrown at you early on—but once it clicks, it’s gripping and intense. 

Natavi and Monster’s dynamic is the center of the storm: violent, addictive, toxic, and strangely tender. If you're a fan of possessive love interests, damaged leads, and storylines where healing doesn’t come easy, you’ll probably love this. The emotional payoff is raw, not sweet. It’s not for the faint of heart, but it is for readers who crave emotional chaos and survival-based love. 

Trigger warnings are heavy: physical abuse, psychological trauma, dark power dynamics. Please go in prepared.

There are scenes involving non-consensual power dynamics that may be interpreted as dubious consent. The relationship starts off hostile and coercive before shifting into obsession and eventual mutual attachment.

The story line is good. But I was distracted by the amount of careless grammatical errors.
