3.0
I read the forward for the trigger warnings, and almost DNF'd right there due to usage of the wrong homophone (people bite their tongues to keep the PEACE, not piece ... unless they've ripped someone's throat out); I've read other books where something like that has kicked me right out of the story.
I'm glad I gave this one a chance.
Make no mistake, it's smut that borders on outright-porn, along with a LONG list of content warnings - but had surprisingly more plot than I was expecting, which was a pleasant surprise.
