I love a good dark romance book butttt he rapes her TWICE! His brother tells him it’s wrong and she is also scared and tells him it’s wrong and then he is going to say “it’s because we are meant to be together, soul mates” and your going to tell me this is the love interest. Nope. We don’t glorify rape over here

The FMC was annoying AF!!!! After Zayden came back the book went downhill. Reminded me why I no longer like NFM or RH because the “no favorite” or “why choose” 🙄 then there’s an obvious favorite makes me annoyed.. someone has to play dumb just to keep her… ugh… the extra star is for Dom, poor thing…

These Graves brothers were something else! This story is not lacking in spice or gore at all. I enjoyed seeing how Blake interacted with each brother and how it differed depending on what that brother was like and what they needed.
I enjoyed this book, but I felt it could have been a bit stronger. To me, the story seemed to lose its way a bit towards the end, and the final action/conflict didn't have as much oomph as I was hoping for.
Overall, I did enjoy the story and I will definitely read more by Taylor!

Omg I don’t even know where to begin! I loved this so much!! Let’s see, from the beginning….Blake is newer to Seattle and is a bartender who loves her music and lives a quiet life. Zayden Graves is a hired unaliver who is also psychotic. One day he sees her and claims his “angel” forever. He becomes her stalker and behind the scenes protector. Then he has to “go away” one day and asks his twin brother Dominic, tech genius extraordinaire, to watch over her. But, he wants her for himself. Dominic and Blake become an item but what happens when Zayden comes back into the picture and he finds out what his brother did? There is just so, so much more that goes on. Bickering siblings, does she choose one over the other, or will all three be an item? The brothers are complete opposite. Dominic is level headed, a businessman, sweet and romantic. Where Zayden is totally unhinged and unapologetic. But together? Fireworks

Another new author ahead of a book event.
I am struggling with my opinion on this, as there were equal parts I loved and equal parts that I really didn't.
Overall this did feel a disappointingly minimal plot, it mainly focused around the FMC trapped with the MMCS so it felt very slow going. The main action happened right in the end and was very quick. I really enjoyed how it started with the MMCS finding her and their obsessive need in the beginning. Their emotions surrounding her really sucked you in.
I didn't like the FMC that much, and I don't think there was much really to her. She has a very traumatic past, but I don't think we really see that a lot in her character. Yes she has a fear of people looming over her, but she got over that. Yes she has bad dreams, but we only see her have one. 7 years from the age of 9 is a LONG time to be abused for, and other than some barely visible scars on her arms that are covered up, there isn't any damage. The few things she describes would have needed medical attention, but it was never mentioned so how is everything now okay? It just felt like there were some gaps to the story and her history that didn't make sense for me.
I really liked the love triangle with the two brothers, I like that they were not instantly up for sharing, and it was something that they had to work on.
I was disappointed that the friend ended up being an ex best friend, and I had hoped the author would have written her differently and kept her as a friend so that we would have some vulnerable moments with the FMC using her as a person of comfort and advice.
The spice was good, and there are some great kinks included that made it more interesting to read.
