Booktok disappointed me and let me down once again preaching this book as if it's the damn Bible when it's literally a book romanticizing freaking sexual assault and labeling it as dub con and noncon when it's not and that's freaking ,harmful and you should be ashamed of yourselves enjoying sexual assault scenes and justifying yourself being delusional calling it noncon.
if y'all like dub/noncon you should be aware that that's not how it works so you just read and enjoyed a freaking rape scene.
And the hypocrisy of the main male character saving girls from Human Trafficking when he's sexually assaulting in his free time like I be seeing videos and comments being like Zade did , Zade said that , Zade Daddy , Zade is the best man and turns out the dude is a rapist I have never been more confused about my sanity than I do when I read people glorifying him

UHM WTF!!! First off, Zade is fucking daddy POINT. BLANK. PERIOD! Secondly, I am very confused as to why Adeline is “The Manipulator” when she didn’t manipulate shit, she was taken advantage of and targeted/hunted by multiple people. Thirdly, that cliffhanger OMG! I need to jump into part 2 NOW!
do not ask me how my morals are because i don’t know the answer to that as well
"Love is an enigma, and it's redefined every time someone says it."
Oh boy, that was terrible. I don’t even know where to start.
First, if I hear “p*ssy”, “juices”, “cl*t”, “c*ck”, “folds”, “core”, “b*tch!”, “drenched”, “good girl”, or “bad girl” one more time, I’ll throw a tantrum.
Second, I can’t believe I managed to finish it. If it wasn’t for the fact that it was an audiobook and I had TONS of driving to do, I never would have read the whole thing.
Usually, I will gladly give a 4- or 5-star rating to books that made me feel strong emotions. I’m not greedy with ratings, and if a book made me feel happy, laugh a couple of times, ugly cry, etc., I’ll give it a good rating even if it’s not “the best writing in the world” or “a book I’ll never forget.”
But this book… urgh.
I thought about giving it a 2-star rating for 2 simple reasons:
1st star: it has a great beginning hook
2nd star: it was great research for my own novel’s spicy scenes
But in the end, I disliked it too much. So 1 star it is.
Characters:
Insufferable, the lot of them, especially Adeline. (Does someone actually believe that this girl is a successful writer? Really?) Only Daya seems sort of tolerable. And Jay, maybe because he speaks very little. Don’t get me started on Zade – everything about him annoyed me. The way he speaks, the way he acts. I mean, come on, I love a good paradoxical character, but there is a godd*mn limit. He hunts and k*lls people who prey on vulnerable girls and boys, then does the same thing himself. The fact that Adeline gets off on fear and pain doesn’t change the fact that he is a disgusting s*xual predator, and I can’t believe so many people are glorifying him. Barf.
Plot:
Come on, it’s a bunch of dark sex scenes with some filling in between (friendship between two girls who call themselves “b*tch” all the time and a super predictable whodunit secondary storyline) to make it seem like there is a point to the book other than getting people off onmorally questionable disturbing topics.
Writing:
Bleh. Some parts were okay, but most of it felt like immature and under-edited writing to me. The whole time, I thought, “Wow, I can’t believe this cr*p got published like that.”
Some will probably think I’m not open-minded. But I don’t care—this was honestly painful to read/hear.
