This book had no business being near 500 pages. The end could've been so much better. The conflict could've been so much better. It was so .... Bland for being a dark romance. The smut was nice, but thats all it was.

The writing style is enjoyable and well done. However, the first half of the book sets up for major character development and growth in a dark mafia type college romance setting, but when it comes to the tense emotional moments at the end of the journey (those realization or character change moments) the dialogue and character writing becomes contrived. For the genre this is both par for the course and on the better side. I enjoyed the main female lead and her darkness, but I wished for more from the male lead; he is quite base line mafia romance demon king bad boy but leans towards psycho vs romantic. The big family moments which solve all problems between the side characters and our main leads are also contrived and at some point the friend group becomes a relic of the first half. It was fun for what it is and the drama between gangs/tension between other couples will keep me reading the series.

Just wasn’t for me! Wouldn’t have been able to see past how their ‘relationship’ began - with sexual assault.
