The spicy scenes were not hot. At all. Why does he keep hooking his fingers over her bottom teeth and dragging her about like that?!?! Why does he “grab her jowls”??? JOWLS! So unflattering 😂 This book also romanticises abusive behaviour and sexual assault.
The ghost storyline reveal was what I thought, but the details were horrific. I think HD Carlton is excellent at writing horror/thrillers. I genuinely felt the tension and fear at moments. I genuinely believe that if this were just a thriller and not an erotic romance I would have enjoyed the book so much better!!
