This book was MUCH darker than I anticipated, but I loved it! Killian is the villain I never knew I needed 😍 There were SO many plot twists and elements of surprise that threw me through a loop, but it was such a good book. Tropes include: Touch her you 💀, possessive MMC, college romance, grumpy x sunshine (ish) and more! (Personally I don’t know much about tropes, but I hope this helps:))

I will read the other books in the series because I’m curious what happens next. It’s entertaining to read. I hate Killian. Their relationship isn’t adorable and I don’t ship it.

It was to rapey for me. I remember skimming this book ages ago and everyone was talking about it so I thought I'd read it properly. 
It just made me really uncomfortable. It wasn't romantic at all it was scary.
