Love, love, loved this one! Absolutely adore Addy, we’re alike in many ways and I think we’d be besties irl. I thought this book gave you a great amount of everything you got to know the characters well, had some great humor put into it (at least it had me giggling at times), had plot, and some great smut. All in all I found it to be a great dark romance but as always please read the triggers and know what you’re getting into before hand.

Does contain non/dub con between the main characters, as well as a cult surrounding men doing very graphic things to children including; sacrifice and trafficking.

This is a good book but the characters do not really develop. They’re pretty much the same through the entire book.   I don’t wanna give any spoilers so I will leave it at that.
