2.0

Listen...this book started out really promising. Dark romance? Heck yeah. Smut? Give it to me! But at about 90%, all I could think is, "why is this book so GD long?" The unnecessary spicy scenes. The chapters of just info dumping. The cringey descriptions. I just can't do it anymore. You could take at least 3 of the unnecessar  spicy scenes out, and I swear this book would be 200 pages shorter. And much easier to get through.

emmydoil's review against another edition

Honestly, it was poorly written.

I've read fanfics that had better writing then this book and that was deeply upsetting since people raved about this. 

The characters were rushed in fleshing out their development, and everything felt sloppy.
