Im always a sucker for a good bully-romance. My only complaint has been they are always younger MCs. Ha! This one wasnt. The FMC is a married woman!!! It took the wholesome fmc returns to her small town, and twisted it. Made it dark, and dirty. I loved it!

This is a thrilling Dark Romance. The Romance in this book is a why choose. The why choose will have M/M scenes as well. The book is extremely spicy. The spicy scenes are very descriptive. Due to this being a dark romance please check all trigger warnings before reading this book. This book moves at a quick pace following Ivy as she, and her husband have an accident on the way to her childhood mountain cabin. While recovering at her cabin her old bullies decide to pay them a visit, one that could turn deadly. This book is intense, and has your heart racing, as it moves from one event to the next. The emotional rollercoaster this book takes you on will have you turning each page for more.
