Malachi, the epitome of darkness and allure, swept me off my feet from the very first page. 😈 His enigmatic presence had me falling deeper with every turn of the page. Who could resist a man as complex as a Rubik's Cube and as dark as midnight? #TeamMalachi forever, no doubts about it! 🥰

This book is my ultimate guilty pleasure, I devoured every sinful page, unable to tear myself away. It's like indulging in the most deliciously depraved slice of pizza, a dark romance that ensnared my soul and refused to let go. The push and pull between Olivia and Malachi kept me on the edge of my seat, craving more with every twist and turn!

This book is not for newbies of the Dark Romance genre. I have read quite a few dark romances and this one is definitely dark. I have tried to include a list of content warnings, however it is not exhaustive as there is content in the book that is not available from the provided options.
If you choose to read this, READ THE CONTENT WARNINGS.
On to my actual review-
This book is wildly insane. I have learned many new things about myself whilst reading it. It is not for the feint of heart. There is fake brother/sister relations (both adopted separately) and lots of inappropriate touching between raised siblings.
That being said, I really did enjoy reading this twisted little book.

"run, little stranger"
This book was an absolute rollercoaster. It's one of the more disturbing stories I've read.
Putting aside the brother-sister thing (I know they're not actually related), they both have absolutely no character. Malachis' whole personality is that he has an ASPD diagnosis. He's the "dark and mysterious" mute that wears black, has shaggy hair & probably wears too much eyeliner. Don't even get me started on Olivia. She has even less personality than her "brother." She does anything and everything that anyone tells her to do, especially her parents. She goes through four (maybe five) betrothals throughout the whole thing (including going along with her mother selling her virginity.) she makes me want to rip my hair out.
I'll gloss over the fact that they fucked raw-dog on top of their fathers beeding out body and then at the end her father (for some unknown and unwritten reason) completely flipped his script and was okay with his daughter running away from her wedding with her brother.
“Go,” Dad says, kissing my cheek. “We’ll deal with them. Be happy, angel."
Like WHAT THE FUCK?!
That ending was absolutely horrible. It felt rushed, like they were tired of writing and wanted to wrap it up.

OBSESSED...
I f'kin inhaled this book. Leigh pushed the limits of dark + taboo with this novella. It is deranged and twisted. Nothing about what happened in this book is okay. But it was also beautiful and raw and had me bawling like a child by the end of it.
This is not feel good or cozy. It's heavy smut with taboo kinks and fetishes. If you're one of those people that like to skip trigger warnings...Don't. Do not set yourself back years of growth + recovery because you wanted to f'ck around + find out. If you've read the synopsis, trigger warnings, took time to reflect and think you can handle it then buckle up and get ready for the darkest ride of your life. Malachi is THAT psycho.
"Run Little Stranger" 😈
