I am just not a dark romance girlie at all. I spent so much time reading it before I realized where it was going and by that point I just wanted to get through it. If you like dark romance and don’t mind manipulation, kidnapping, assault etc, go for it

Initially, I really enjoyed this book. I love the characters and the dynamics. But when things start heating up, there’s a lot of self reflection that goes on for pages. While I believe that’s beneficial, I started skipping over pages since for the most part it was already information we already know about the characters.

It is a GREAT read, managed to shock me (pretty hard, dark romance is my norm), BUT while the author does her best with the warnings there is quite a bit of rape amongst the main characters. She was honest and said these characters are messed up and she wasn’t joking. Still a great read!

Very heavy packed.

As someone really empathetic. I felt really conected to detective Yor. 
The feeling of anxiety, self loathing, struggle to understand or being overwhelmed by emotions are really well portrayed. 

Quite interesting story but be sure to read the warnings... As the author says it. 


Apollo is no gray area, nor a hero or vigilante. He is very dark.
