3.0

2.0/5 overall, 3.5/5 spice. 
This book has a lot of messed up things going on in the storyline so if you are squeemish, check content warnings first as there is a lot of graphic violence that is a bit out there/not ok stuff. I'll remember this book because of that lol.  

Unfortunately there were a few storyline pieces that never same together for me; it was missing some key descriptors and there were components of the story that just felt thrown in/not integrated well. The smut was good but their relationship needed a bit more depth. I felt like the story could have been overall just better done. 

Don't get me wrong, there were definitely points of enjoyment and it did kind of keep me guessing how the book was going to end with regard to their shared "hobby"... its weird that it was messed up but interesting? This one is fairly spicy spice.. so if you're not into that, its not for you. 

 This is the first of a 3 book series I believe -- tbd whether I go back for more.
