I did it to myself, didn't I... It's like a car accident; you don't want to look at it, yet, for some reason, you just can't stop turning your head to look back.

This is one of those books you can’t recommend to people. 


What I mean by that is without knowing someone and their triggers and their past you can’t really recommend this book. I enjoyed this book. But I enjoyed it because I knew what I was getting into before reading and I was prepared.

 With that being said:

I loved Kaleb and Tiernan, I was on his team from the moment he brought a shotgun to go get Tiernan lol. I hate to say it but this book was oddly comforting to me. I would love to go up to a snowy cabin and read this book by the fire. This just might be a new comfort read for me.

This really isn’t a book for everyone. It deals with some pretty messed up themes (mentioned in my content warnings) and it’s pure graphic smut in most of its chapters. 

Personally, not paying attention to the messed up, I genuinely enjoyed this book and most probably re-read it sometime. That ending has got to be the best happy ending I’ve ever read honestly and I LOVED it.

This book is romanticizing rape and abuse and is overall just badly written and executed.
