Im not sure how I feel about this book. On the one hand the premise is good, on the other, I think I reached my limit on dark romance. 

It’s not a bad book, just not for me I think. It is addictive, the style of writing sucks you in but the FMC Olivia I didn’t like and felt that she got everything she wanted but never worked for it. 

I felt that Malachi was a good character, dark yes very dark and paired with someone else he would have been sublime. 

Just not for me I’m afraid.

Notes I made while reading:

He hasn’t talked for years since he was little. she said she wants him to say her name so he can say it to her when they have sex. Malachi wrote in the text
“since you’re teaching me everything else will you teach me how to say your name I might fuck the pronunciation up a few times but I want to know how to say it.”

No character backstory/development. Immature style of writing.

i hate the mom omg wtf but i love malachi so much 

falling in love again

I’m not sure why I originally gave this three stars because now I’m upping into four. Reintroducing myself to Malachi was just amazing and I was salivating the whole time.
