Secret Obsession by S. Massery

4.0

---

4 freaking stars because Miles was quite literally giving boy obsessed! The smut was mind blowing and I absolutely adored Miles. I never thought a hockey romance could have dark elements to it, but here we fucking are. The only reason I cut a star was because the book was unnecessarily long and felt dragged out to me. Also there wasn't any real plot like??? Like the author just decided to throw in a murder and a stalker more than halfway through. There were so many questions that were left unanswered towards the end that had me feeling dissatisfied. Regardless, it was a pretty good read overall and I would recommend it. As I mentioned before, Knox is a grade A asshole and he can choke. BUT I also wanna see him get his redemption arc and to meet the woman that will bring him to his knees hehehehhe. Also, I will def not be reading the previous two books in this series after getting glimpses of the couples in this book because 1. Apparently, Greyson is a limp dicked pussy who simply cannot take ownership for his shitty actions. 2. I absolutely do not want to read about Steele who got a bj from his best friend's (Greyson's) gf (Violet) - even if it was before he got tg with Aspen - get his own story like NO...it's giving Kai from the Devil's Night series ifykyk (hence why I'm staying away from those books lol). With that being said, I will be continuing with this series and I really look forward to reading Jacob's book next. It seems pretty intriguing to me :)

- h is the H's older brother's ex (dw the brother didn't have any feelings for the h and the h only had misguided feelings for her ex)
- no OW/slight OM drama (nothing major)
- no cheating/sharing
- OTT + J/P H
- no condoms
- it's implied that the H has been celibate since he first saw the h (he's a year younger than her)
- push and pull + tension
- somnophilia, orgasm denial, insertion, anal play, CNC/dub con, control/power play, murder and violence, scenes with explicit sexual content, etc
