4.25

This is dark, twisted and disturbing. Not for those who are sensitive to explicit situations and open-door romance. Mainly, the high score I give this book is due to the male narrator Joe Arden. His portrayal of Malachi is phenomenal. It's passionate, scary, heartbreaking, dirty and insane. 

If you like dark romance, I suggest listening to the book to get the full experience of this character.
