This was recommended from TT and I was intrigued by the summary. The TW are legit so make sure to check those which include breath play and knife play. Overall it was an ok read. The character development felt so rushed with Grayson and Violet meeting and automatically hating each other to obsessed. He also made her do several things that I don’t think he came close to redeeming himself for (ie scene with Steele) I also thought the build up lead to a very anticlimactic ending that didn’t make a ton of sense. My favorite part was Violet and her BF Willow’s “ride or die” friendship. There are tons of good reviews so it is still worth a read if you like sports, college, enemies to lovers, dark romance with lots of kink.

Is this book "realistic"? No, but that is not why I read these kinds of books.
Is Greyson an asshole who is completely delulu, and do I wish I could have punched him in the face a lot of times? YES!
Do I still kind of moon over him? YES!
Violet is not meek and scared, I like that about her.
So yes, there is a lot of drama going on at the same time, but being the "Sparkling Drama-Lama" that I am, I ate it all up like it was popcorn.

I absolutely devoured this book! Perfect blend of plot and smut! Grayson at the start was definitely unhinged though, glad he turned softer through the book

To say this one took me by surprise would be an understatement. It was alot more “brutal” that I expected. Though to be fair I don’t read synopsis, so it could have mentioned that on the back and I just wasn’t prepared as I like going in blind. But this book was amazing, a little intense at times but I enjoyed it!!
