5.0
Oh. My. GOD
I just finished reading this and I can't even begin to describe how amazing this book is! Seriously, who wrote this incredibly beautiful masterpiece? [a:Rachel Haimowitz|4165753|Rachel Haimowitz|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1311033309p2/4165753.jpg] & [a:Cat Grant|1912055|Cat Grant|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1338938331p2/1912055.jpg]. If someone asks me why I love reading so much, I will shove this book in their face. Honestly, I'm tempted to visit every book I've ever rated 5 stars after reading this. 'Cuz what the heck? There should be a special rating for such books.
Phew, deep breath. This book has everything I love and could ever ask for. You love realistic, well-written characters with purpose, motivations, and goals. Really good character development and growth. BDSM kinks and the foundation of it, what it could mean to some people, what it would help some people achieve. Sassy MC. A balanced relationship where both submissive and dominant care for each other's needs. Absolutely perfectly executed dual points of view. Just start this series, no need to scroll more in the comment section. Do yourself a favor and start it.
I loved watching Brandon's growth throughout the story. Jonathan is not portrayed as a flawless, all-powerful character, but rather someone who can make mistakes and learn from them. His self-awareness makes him the perfect guide for Brandon to find his own self in the maze his life hid it in from him. The monologues and dialogues are absolutely perfect, and the pacing of events is spot on. God, I loved, I loved, I lov... I could go on and on, but I'll stop here if I had to list all of it, this review would never end.
Gonna say it one more time: do yourself a favor and start reading it, NOW.
God, help me. I already want to re-read it. I really tried to drag the inevitable which was finishing it.
