Dark romance isn’t my usual cup of tea but this was done very well. I love a why chose with sword crossing, and honestly, this read as an omegaverse pack because of how strong the MMC’s relationships with each other are. They met as orphaned teenagers and stuck together to build a successful business. The two tops read as alphas (especially Zeke, who’s into biting and blood play and marking his partners as his), the bottom reads as beta, and of course the FMC reads as a strong-willed omega who the rest of the pack yearns to pamper. 

Overall I really liked this, but I hate the miscommunication trope a lot. However, this plot line was done well and didn’t just feel thrown in for the sake of having a third act breakup and giving the MMCs a reason to grovel. I do wish it wasn’t as abrupt when the FMC agreed to take them back, however.

This is the second time I’ve read a Sadie Kincaid book, and it’s the second time I’ve been disappointed by how she writes about trauma. I’m all for authors connecting kink to trauma and trauma recovery, & I can appreciate an attempt to make a character seem empowered. Unfortunately, the way she writes about her female characters just breezing past their **horrific** abusive pasts takes me right out of the story and kills her credibility. There is a way to write a smutty romance heroine with a traumatic past. This is not it. 

If you’re going to write gruesome trauma into the story or pasts of your characters, do it with care.
