The 85% mark/ chapter 25 part of this book gets five stars and will live rent free in my head for awhile 😌
This book is supposed to be dark romance about these men that want to get revenge on this girl that made some of them go to jail a few years ago. My problem with it was that it wasn’t really that dark and if you are gonna go there then go big. I would have preferred to see more stuff they did to mess with her and the others pushing Michael’s limits more. I also think that Rika should have saved herself more in a few scenarios since that seemed like kind of the point. It’s a fun read if you throw your morals out of the window.
