Just finished this one. 

Not usually my cup of tea, a lot of non consensual sexual scenes, girl and child trafficking. 

I’d say about 50% is vivid sex scenes, but the stories behind it are good. A vigilante who rescues these women and children, an unsolved murder case. 

Ends on a cliff hanger so now I have to read the next one to know what happens (even tho I figured out pretty early what the cliff hanger would be). 

Very graphic so if graphic isn’t for you, I would not recommend. Definitely has triggers in it too for trauma.

I just finished Haunting Adeline by H.D. Carlton…..

Ummmm……welll…… the SMUT is real in this one. 

I’m not sure if I can handle the amount of spice in this book. It definitely needs to come with trigger warnings. 

It’s weird because the storyline is actually really really good, but the sex is just strange. I feel like I could have done with out that lol 

The love the guy has for the main character is kind of beautiful but then you are quickly reminded that the dude is a real creep! 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5
