read with zero information other than it was a “dark romance” and it was the only one not currently checked out. i’m not the person to ask for a rating because i can’t get down with mafia stories (i tried so hard to watch organized crime. huge stabler fan. i can’t handle “macho guys posturing with guns” storylines) and while i intellectually understand the interest in step sibling taboo, it’s not for me. i think the most interesting aspect of the story for me was the tobias/lazarus relationship, and if her paper ended being any good.

This is absolute trash.
Am i supposed to root for this romance, when all they do is take advantage of her, sexually harass and assault her? They literary raped her. When will authors stop romanticizing and gloryfing rape? When will they stop pretending that is romantic, that is love? And the fact that a woman wrote this is even more disgusting. That scene in ch 10 where they rape her with their parents present is the most ridiculous, ludicrous, horrendous shit ever. Who the fuck took a look at this and thought this is good? It's crazy that it even got published.
Also the fmc is a fucking idiot. She can't even see the most obvious things that are in front of her and the fact that the sa doesn't affect her and she doesn't even think to tell anyone is crazy. Plus that boy who either pretends to like her to take revenge of the brothers or actually likes her, but in the end he will be demonized in favor of the brothers.
Even to where I stopped reading the book was filled with plot holes and something that absolutely disgusted me was that she got herself off by thinking of herself getting raped and not only treating it was a daily occurrence, but actually liking it: "I wanted them and I liked what they did to me…a little too much."
Why are they calling every woman in this book a bitch and why are they referring to her as a kid, but still want to fuck her and the incest kink? Disgusting.
