You will never be able to convince me otherwise that both of the main characters, Priest and Bea, weren't Pick Me characters. Bea is all "I'm not like other good girls because there's darkness in me." Priest is all "I'm not like other psychopaths because I'm a monster."

Okay... I get IT.

After page 60 I started bookmarking every page that had something cringy on it. My total was 29. 

29 times something just absolutely cringy was said, and that's after page 60. And the spicy scenes? Very aggressive. It was so aggressive I had to take a break reading it.

But there was something about this writing that I ate up. So far, this is my favorite out of the series. I don't know if I can recommend this because, for a character-driven story, the characters were pretty flat. Their whole personality was being Pick Me characters, and yet, I ate this story up.
