I-
Leigh Rivers…
I need to know what drug you injected into this book because… holy.
In all honesty, to begin with I didn’t think I’d like this book much, well… I knew I’d like it because it’s DR but I didn’t think i was going to love it quite this much.
But did I eat this book up and devour the absolute shit out of it? Yes, yes I did.
I licked the plate clean and ate the plate too.
Malachi is as confusing as he is charming, he’s protective over his Olivia and trusts her with his life which is truly beautiful to see from a boy who hasn’t been able to trust anyone for his whole life.
This book is short which makes it a fun, quick read and it’s also fast paced which meant I never felt bored, I read this book in one sitting + 30 minutes or so in a coffee shop the next morning.
It’s definitely dark, like dark dark, it is a taboo DR so there are topics that some people may find disturbing or offensive so before you go into this book, please, check trigger warnings.
If you’ve been thinking of reading this all I can say is 100% do it. I was scared I wouldn’t like it and I loved it 😂.
However one small piece of advice if you do decide to read this, keep an eye out for the tarantula scene ;).
