I felt the plot was well organized and paced nicely so it didn't feel like anything was dragging, and it didn't feel like things were moving too fast. I felt that the characters were well-described so I knew their personalities and their intentions well.
I loved how depraved and insane the MMC was, he had me on the edge of my seat wanting more of him as the pages went. I loved how intense, protective, and possessive he was of the FMC. I felt like the sign language and mute nature were a great addition to the story that you typically don't get to see with this type of storyline. I loved that the FMC was so innocent and naïve with her brother, but on some level, she was just as depraved as he was with her desires, and he was willing to fulfill every one of her fantasies.
I highly recommend this book, after having read Haunting Adeline and loving it, I was told by others that "Zade walked so Malachi could run." And even though the stories are very different, I do feel like the story lived up to the hype. I enjoyed it very much and can't wait to read more from this author.

Trigger warning! Just check the triggers before you read it and like the author says, your mental health matters. Good read but definitely dark.vane725's review
