Giving this 5 stars because I know it’s going to stay with me for a long, long time. It was well written and the story was riveting. More than that, I really kind of admire that the authors were willing to go to some incredibly dark places that I know most would never touch. Plus, it’s the first time I’ve read non-con where it was actually convincing and logical that the FMC fell for the MMCs. I might change the rating after a reread but for now this was peak dark romance to me.

This book was bonkers but I dug it! A smutty why-choose good time. If you’re not into dark romance or bully romances, I’d skip this 

The image of Killian angrily making a PB&J is now seared in my brain.

dark funny slow-paced

2.75

Meh. Good. The humour is entertaining. It’s darker than book one. And the melodrama and organised crime isn’t for me. Not sure if I’ll skim or read book three

this one was as good as book 1 in the series, although way darker and more twisted. though i love dark romance a lot, this one was, from time to time, really hard to read and made me feel uncomfortable and disgusted a lot. so really check the triggerwarnings here! story is such a badass fmc and i like all the men as well (but rath is my fav forever, that won't change). hopefully, in book 3 we'll finally find out who the real ted is, because i'm going absolutely crazy over that!
