When you need to read something with a dark and possessive hero, just think of Whit! He gives me intense Carter vibes but a sort of lite version.

This is heavy on the sex, but I loved it. At first it’s just nothing but lust. This isn’t like a love story I think it’s a lust to obsession to the brokenness of two people merging together.

The only reason I didn’t give us a five star is because I really wanted a definitive resolution between his sister and Summer.

Like was her friendship and ask for real or did she decide to be the way she was in the end because of her mother.

But other than that this is a great toxic love story, and I will be rereading this again. Definitely will recommend!

I don‘t know what to write about this book… Toxic? Sexual tension for 99% of the time? Sex? Bullying? Obsession? Did i write toxic already? 
But I couldn’t stop reading, it hurt a lot, i was like ‚WHY??‘ all the time. The end was like: we were separated for 1 1/2 years and i (whit) changed a lot. So now we can be together, have our HEA… 
I don‘t know… it felt so toxic and wrong all the time and it was always money and power… for the man. The woman was forced, weak and a whore… i didn‘t like this picture which have been drawn the whole book through…
