Not for the faint of heart .
Not quite sure yet what I think of the first book in the acquisition series, it was well written and a page turner but I found the violence of the ball a hard pill to stomach, I will read most things and not get upset but I found the whipping to an extent that it took weeks to heal and that Stella was permanently scarred very disturbing it was not consensual and was more a form of torture , I also can't suss out Lucius is he a sleaze or genuinely liking Stella and don't get me started on Sin Mr multiple personality , I realise there is some deep dark reason pushing him to compete for sovereign, but that he could stand there and also permanently scar Stella for this astounds me, am so not warming to him and can't get my head round how Stella is, he also had the nerve to ask her at the ball if his brother had hurt her when he knew what was in store for her. I'm in shock, and its only gonna get worse, i will read the next book because I want to see what happens with Stella and in my opinion she should have thrown her dad to the wolves, still should she needs to run fast and far from these psycho's.
