this book is supposed to be dark and twisted, and it definitely was. i gave it 4 stars because some of the twists were pretty predictable - still a good read. please again check TW, this won’t be for everyone (SA, dub con, etc.). they’re manipulative for sure, but i knew they weren’t going to be great because this is *supposed to be dark.* 

i felt really grossed out about her uncle, it was my least favorite part… even though the author knows how to write a good spicy scene. idk. blegh. i know they aren’t at all blood related in any way, but it still was just ewwie LOL

<spoilers>   4/5 stars

as a woman, i am disappointed in myself that i really enjoyed this book. my feminism is just so far out of the window at this point.
not going to lie, i was rooting for jake through most of it. noah wasn't it for me and he was my least favorite. i did like how 'mysterious' kaleb was so i was excited she finally spent a lot of time with him.
towards the end though, i didn't like the time jumps. i was excited to find out how noah and jake reacted to kaleb speaking again, and their reaction to tiernan and kaleb getting into a relationship. that would've made the book better; in my opinion.
nonetheless, i think it was very good and fun overall. the writing was giving very much wattpad, but that's okay. that's what made it extremely addicting:)

This book is dark. It's  taboo. It's spicy. It was like watching a car crash, I wanted so badly to look away but I couldn't. I enjoyed the endgame but I do think a lot of the dark/taboo parts of the book could have been cut out. The complex trauma is written really well and overall the plot is okay. If you are a fan of dark (and I mean really dark) romances and can look past the content warnings the romance might be worth it for you. This is not a book for you if you are looking for fluff.

So while the relationships in this book aren’t technically incestuous they tread a fine line.
