This book is definitely dark - read trigger warnings. 

I have mixed feelings. Overall I think I liked it? Definitely dark and definitely dragged on in parts, but I’ll give it 4/5 stars.

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.

I didn't even want it in my read history. But I read it. So here it is. If you find that you must read this book it's best taken in reading out loud with a friend.

If you’re in the mood for dark smut, this could be a good choice. The characters aren’t fully fleshed out, and some of the writing & grammar is flawed, but there’s tons of spice to go around. No sequel. Reverse harem.

Don’t waste your time reading this book. Rox got kidnapped and sold to the mafia and then she falls in love with them while continuously telling the readers she doesn’t have Stockholm syndrome.
