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.

Definitely not a slow burn. Killian Carson is like a drug. Glyndon King was a bit annoying but not unbearable.

3.5 stars. This book got dark from the first page and I was not prepared! If you are going to read this and you need warnings about content, look before reading because you don’t get much time to be ready. I’m interested in seeing how the other couples in this series play out, and how the over-arching storyline plays out. There was a lot of suspension of disbelief required, but that can be fun when you want it.

Did y’all not read the same book I did? 

This book glorifies rape and SA and should not even be considered a “dark romance” - there is nothing romantic about it. 

Not only is the main plot line SA every other page, the story is awful, the writing is redundant, and the characters are annoying. Why a publisher thought it was a good idea to put this book out into the world (warning notice be damned) is emotionally abusive to all readers. 

Rina, (and frankly, all the readers who gave a favorable review) are you ok??? Blink twice if you need help.
