In theory I can understand how someone might enjoy this book BUT there are somethings that are just diabolical. Trigger warning for SA content in the spoiler section of this review.
Having the rape scene from Kaleb’s POV was so unnecessary and made it downright horrible to read. If she was trying to create some hot forbidden CNC scene, she could have had it from Teirnen’s POV and while I would have still hated it, it would have maybe MAYBE been redeemable. Then to make him the love interest?! Truly ridiculous. Also the way they justify him raping her is actually insane.
The only thing that sometimes made this book enjoyable was how bad and ridiculous it was, but it’s issues completely ruined anything that could be remotely enjoyable.
