Romance or Stockholm syndrome? The MMC is a literal sociopath who is constantly threatening the FMC and she can’t get away from him until she

finally gives in and decides she likes it.

The plot was so thin it was transparent.

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.

Girl develops Stockholm syndrome and falls in love with her rapist. If you are okay with sexual assault being the literal foundation of the FMC/MMC’s relationship, then read away. Anyone who enjoys this for the “spice” aka forced sodomy, should go to therapy. I love a spicy book, but you know what I love more? Consent.

To say that Kill and Glyn have a twisted relationship would truly be putting it lightly. Nonetheless their love was raw, toxic, obsessive, adorable, harsh, and worth it. I loved their story and couldn’t put it down.
