if you're looking for a wild ride and a good time, Cade and Lily's story is the way to go..... keep in mind this is a stalker dark romance. you need to read your trigger warnings. however, if you are past that and are all about the triggers, do it. we are talking about a tool kit of surprises if you know you know and if you don't know, read the book and you'll know LOL

This…this was brainrot. There was no romance. No patience. No yearning. No romantic gestures. Nothing. I don’t even know what to call this. What I do know is that this is NOT dark romance. It’s just dark.
The MMC, Cade, is literally one hair away from needing a grippy sock vacation WITH a muzzle. Between his lackluster dirty talk, the fact that his “obsession” was nearly assaulted and his response was to follow her home and do it himself, him discussing taking the girl’s virginity with a coworker (specifically saying “It wasn’t hard. She resisted at first, but I could tell she wanted it. She just needed a strong man to show her what she’s been missing”), THEN TELLING HER “clean yourself up. Then it’s time for round two”, he may just be the WORST MMC I’ve experienced in my life.
And Lily, the FMC isn’t any better. The only words in her vocabulary are “please Cade”, she doesn’t stand up for herself, she uses the fact that she was abandoned in foster care as an excuse as to why she lets Cade treat her the way he does, she packs up her whole life to join the freak show, psycho, carnival on wheels bs AFTER Cade tells her she doesn’t have a choice because he’s forcing her to go with him…I want to strangle her myself.
And even with all of that, it still somehow manages to get worse. He manages to screw her with a hammer (A HAMMER.), there are four rounds in a span of three minutes, AND in the end when he’s forcing her to leave with him, he says “Fuck, baby. You like me r*ping you, don’t you?” And at 82%, that was my last straw. This was the equivalent of what I suspect watching a psychopath interact with one of those inanimate sex dolls is like. Spare yourself.
