"Te amo lo suficiente como para destrozar el mundo si te hace daño, si le causa un solo minuto de miseria a mi chica de los ojos de whisky. Nunca me he sentido así por nada y no quiero hacerlo nunca más."
The FMC being called babe so frequently was out of control. Also the FMC was insufferable until maybe 60-70% of the way through. However the depth and persistence of the MMC’s love was swoon worthy.
The way they were obsessed with each other was perfection. This was unhinged, forbidden, crazy but ohh so great. A must read, I’m obsessed with this series and ate this book up like ice cream. She’s a teacher, she is married, she is perfect and proper. Comes from money. He is a Garro, the heir to the MC presidency, he is possessive, and he is her high school student. Yeah, that crazy good. But the way this author writes the story, it’s just perfection. I was hooked from the moment they made eye contact and I couldn’t stop. Check trigger warnings, but this is phenomenal read. Then when you think everything is perfect, there is a twist that I didn’t see coming and had me screaming and throwing the book like a crazy person!!! A must read, this is such a creative, crazy story that I’m in love with. This is a new to me author and I can’t stop!!! On to the dark side now…….

Giana Darling (The Fallen Men, #1)
"Bone of my bone."
High school English teacher Cressida Irons has never so much as jaywalked in her entire life, let alone break rules that would get her fired or even thrown in jail. But when temptation presents itself as King Garro, the prince of the Fallen MC, even God himself wouldn't be able to resist.
It should be known that I have read all the other Fallen Men books (save for After the Fall) and it honestly just felt disrespectful to have not read this once, and hence I am now here having read it. I love Giana's writing, and it was nice to go all the way back and meet all the characters all over again and get a little bit more of an overview into this world.
King was undoubtedly the highlight for me. The way he loves is everything. I genuinely do not think anything compares to how deep his devotion for Cressida is and I absolutely adored him for it. For an eighteen year old, he was definitely more eloquent than any high school kid I have ever met but it was really easy to believe he had that eloquence about him because of how Giana writes him. He's definitely something special. It's also a huge testament to her writing because we don't even get a King POV and I was still able to feel that level of affection off the pages.
Now, please hold your pearls because I'm probably going to anger some people. Personally, I did not like Cressida. Though I felt bad for her in the beginning because she was shackled to a mundane life she never wanted to part of, I didn't like the way she was so flaky with King when all he did was show her unconditional love. While I understood her predicament, her behavior really irked me at times. I was infuriated because he did everything for her and all she did was pull away. It felt like she didn't deserve the sheer force of his love sometimes.
Anyway, Lionel Danner will still be my number one all time favorite Giana man. I am not ashamed to confess that I was straight up salivating every time Officer Danner showed up on the page because how can you not? He is everything. Time for a re-read? I think so. Bye now!

I loved this even more the second time around. A strong alpha male with a forbidden romance with his teacher. It sounds scandalous, but the way its written is pure perfection. Can't wait to reread the rest of this series
