I Dnfd at like chapter 9. I am a dark romancish kinda person, I have read some that are pretty questionable. This one i could not stand. No hate to whoever enjoys this book, but by chapter 9 I knew it was a no go for me... I am not gonna be lengthy because there are plenty of other reviews that say exactly how I feel but this book made me physically feel not okay and I was doing the audio book. 10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Torn about this one. On the one hand, is 50% assault, but in the other she low key likes it? Like I said, undecided. 

This was entertaining if nothing else and the male characters made it very interesting to follow, the FMC was a little dull which is saying something when she’s literally ping ponging between liking the fucked up situation and not. 

In really interested in seeing the other guys stories, even if they’ll be just as fucked up.

is this the best literature I've ever read? surely not. did it make me actually kick, scream, blush, and devour every bit of it?! absolutely. I'll just leave you with this ....

"I love you, my monster"
"And I love you, baby"
More than she'll ever comprehend, think, or know. 
I love her to the point of fucking madness. 

if you're in for a morally black villain who sees only the FMC... you'll absolutely eat this up. idk if the next book will top this one but I'm willing to find out.

Dark, bully romance that feels like a mixture of “The Ritual” and “Lights Out.” Although I wouldn’t want this IRL I like how Killian pushes Linden to admit what she wants.
