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

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!
