This was an interesting read. I tend to read books without knowing anything about them besides what genre they fall under even though I don't know about all of them. When I realized it was about two people who were adopted by the same people I thought oh ok I can work with this since they don't see it that way but throughout the whole book it contradicted between Oh you are my sibling to Oh I don't see you that way so that made it a hint uncomfortable at times but I get that's a trope that a lot of people are into. It doesn't bother me but it also doesn't do anything for me. The spice was fantastic and quite dark. I felt for the MMC and my heart broke for him and the MFC. Overall I enjoyed this book. I don't know if I will go back and ever read it again but it was enjoyable

Malachi, the epitome of darkness and allure, swept me off my feet from the very first page. 😈 His enigmatic presence had me falling deeper with every turn of the page. Who could resist a man as complex as a Rubik's Cube and as dark as midnight? #TeamMalachi forever, no doubts about it! 🥰

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

This book is my ultimate guilty pleasure, I devoured every sinful page, unable to tear myself away. It's like indulging in the most deliciously depraved slice of pizza, a dark romance that ensnared my soul and refused to let go. The push and pull between Olivia and Malachi kept me on the edge of my seat, craving more with every twist and turn!

The constant battle between desire and morality was utterly captivating. Despite being adoptive siblings, the primal pull between them was undeniable. And when Malachi's dark deeds land him in prison, only to return and claim Olivia as his own, the stakes soar to new heights.

Tropes:
Dark adoptive brother MMC
Forbidden romance
Selective mute
Possessive and obsessive behavior

Kinks/Triggers:
Somnophilia
Taboo romance
Bl00d play
Kn!fe play
Spider play

This is hands down my favorite adoptive brother romance. Malachi and Olivia's love is eternal, and I couldn't care less about anyone else's opinion. If you're craving a dark and spicy read that will leave you questioning everything, dive into this twisted tale! 🖤

Omg. I didn’t want this book to ever end. 😭 

It’s dark. It’s taboo. It’s spicy. It’s everything! 

This is by far the best foster sibling book I’ve read. I really enjoyed him being a selective mute and how she accepted him even as a child. There were times I wanted to strangle her and tell her to stop being so stupid but this book is chefs kiss.
