This book just really wasn’t for me.  The multitudes of trigger warnings aside, there just wasn’t much of a plot.

this is so painfully pretentious,
the lords sound like big violent babies and there is no substance or plot.

"I’d go to war for my wife. One man was nothing."

and go to war they did; just, not the kind he expected.

wtf was this book? why did they build up a good plot only for it to suck so bad in the end? WHY DID SHE KEEP TAKE THE DRUGS WILLINGLY?! why did they take (approximately) 1000 showers?

force sex fantasy and CNC but not one conversation about limits or safe words, GHB fed to her every 5 seconds, fucking next to dead bodies, secret society plotline barely touched, FMC having just about no personality, obsessed ex bf who didn't want her when they were together but now wants her because his enemy has her, random elopement so she doesnt have to be forced into marriage to said ex bf. it just keeps going

I love dark romances, especially CNC/FSF but this wasn't it. this book didn't need to be 600 pages.
