 disgusting and hypocritical.
a) I've read far better smut than that
-are u seriously going to say "our tounges battled for dominance?" (pg 442)
-hell, I've read far better gun kink sex than this ( starts pg 214)
b) what is Zade's deal? He uncovers pedophiles and sex trafficking, but seemingly has no qualms stalking and raping Addie? Dude, just make up your mind
- "When I learned about human trafficking and the depths of it's depravity, I was sickened. And I have the skill to do something about it, so I am" (pg 521)
-"And the reason I stalk you, little mouse, is because I want to" (pg 522)
c) What even was the pedo/sex traffic/cult plot?
-they were having blood rituals??? (pg 590)
d) The Gigi plot line was boring! I'm sorry, but it just seemed like they needed to give Addie something to do instead of writing her book that would keep her at the house + able to be stalked

Anywho, don't read:
The parts of the book that weren't smut didn't keep me engaged and the parts that were-well it was bad, most of it was rape, and no one really seemed like they were enjoying themselves.

This book was the first I read after getting into the idea of reading again. I know it has some controversies but I personally liked it even if we cannot say that it would be a normal life situation. The morally grey characters are interesting and their story is unique. It is for an advertized reader though and you must be careful about the trigger warnings!

Nothing short of terrifying. Just a rape fantasy disguised as “dark romance”.
