Wow. I wasn’t sure about this book, but it wasn’t that bad. I’m pretty sure I skimmed the last 6 chapters bc I want to read Rider’s book. It was ok, some grammar errors, good plot; did not like the excessive “bitch” 😭 i understand thats “biker slang” but damn.  spicy scenes were ok, ive read better on wattpad. But yea, definitely worth it to continue reading the series

why is it that i always like the villain more than the MMC??? like, they brought up Rider, medic, exsoldier, AND I JUST WANTED HER TO BE WITH RIDER 😭😭😭

it has dual POV!!

This book was so absolutely amazing. Dark and painful but beautiful nonetheless. I read both on kindle and listened on audio and the narrators were fantastic, especially given the  narrator for Styx did his stutter very well.
I’m so excited for more of the books in this series (especially Riders, don’t come at me).

A heavy theme in this series is religious abuse and cults and the things that happen in them.

Too smut. I never thought I'd say that but there were smut in the most random moments, </spoiler like she just got kidnapped and all she thinks about is fucking??>
I was also very shocked by all the cursing, at some point it was very unnecessary, and keep in mind I am not a susceptible person
