I have to be completely honest because I didn't like this.
Rina tends to be a very hit or miss author for me and this one was a miss. I had high hopes for this book because I love Hockey romances, I love secret societies, and I love dark romance. This book read like the author wrote all of the spicy scenes first and they tried to force a story between the spice. The story didn't flow well at all and the characters choices made almost no sense to me. This couple is more of enemies with benefits until Dhalia forces Kane to be in a relationship with her. Reading this book I honestly felt like these two didn't like each other in any way whatsoever, but they were both just horny and needed that scratch itched.
Also hockey where???? This was 100% more like a dark mafia book where the MMC just so happens to play hockey.
I almost forgot about how annoyed I got at Dahlia. She is specifically going to this collage to find out what happened to her foster sister, but like continually forgets because she wants to get laid. Her 'revenge' also felt like a side quest for her when it was supposed to be her motivating factor.
It's a very real possibility I read this book at the wrong time an would have enjoyed it more if I was ovulating, but I didn't have a good time reading it and I only finished it out of spite.
