TW: sexual assault/abuse
Okay, I was really excited about this at first - I'm always looking for more F/F romance, and I'm not afraid of darker books. My issue with this was that there was no balance. Everything in Aura and Ruby's lives is incredibly rough and brutal, and they're rough and brutal to each other when they're together. There's not a single moment of respite in the entire book, and I think there's more explicit scenes than actual consensual sex. It just seems like the whole book exists for shock value, and it isn't supported by an interesting plot or likable characters. Ruby and Aura didn't even have any actual chemistry - we were just told that they apparently did. I couldn't find myself rooting for literally anyone in the book, and would not be able to recommend this to anyone.
