I am honestly not sure how I feel about this book. It was well written and quick paced. I read it in a day, staying up past 2am to finish. In the beginning I loved the banter between the two main characters. After a while the banter felt more like verbal abuse and I was left feeling gross inside more then feeling the romance vibes. I will say it was a lot more realistic then most romances I read, showcasing the good, the bad, and the disgusting sides of humanity. Unfortunately, I like to read to escape reality, so it just didn't do it for me. If you are into the whole idea of "saving" or "changing" the violent & possessive, albeit sexy, bad guy, this book might be perfect for you.
