I loved everything about this book—the spice, the plot, the romance. It was all so good! And I thought the mental health / trauma rep was done so well.
Ronan is such a misunderstood character, and seeing his arc, especially with Cal, was simultaneously so sweet and so, so steamy. I also loved how he was like her dark hero in a way. No matter what Cal did, he was always there, holding on to her, whether he understood what he was feeling or not. There were so many ups and downs too, so I was on the edge of my seat pretty much the whole time. If it weren’t for how busy I was when I picked this up, I likely would have finished it in a day because I seriously did not want to put it down.
Cal was also such a strong character. She was conflicted, but so strong-willed despite everything that had happened to her—and was currently happening to her. The plot twist at the end was pretty major and definitely took me by surprise. So not only was this great for trauma rep and your smutty fix, it had a great plotline that kept me hooked from page one. Their story also had me tearing up more than once, so just on that alone, I could have given it 5 stars.
Some of the tropes in this aren’t usually something I like, but everything just worked so well. I would definitely recommend checking the triggers for this if you think you would like to read it as well, but if those seem okay for you, I would 100% recommend this to any dark romance reader out there.
