I loved this book… until the end.

Dare was definitely a morally grey character. I often questioned if he truly loved Aubrey, which is clear eventually. He’s a literal psychopath and honestly scared me a little but he was still sexy as f*ck, nonetheless. Especially since SM dedicated it to Jacob Elordi, that’s all I could picture

“ … but should you ever actually get sick of me, I would advise you to reflect on what made you love me in the first place and fucking bathe in it, because I will never, ever let you go.”
-Dare Darington, from Even If It Hurts by Sam Mariano
