Did not finish book.
DNF @ ~65%

I really went into this book interested to see how a woman with religious trauma overcomes her fears and whatnot by falling in love with another woman, expected some awesome writing, and tbh was excited for the smut scenes. In the beginning it was okay, but the further I read, the more I noticed the mostly mediocre writing, the overuse of swears to the point of cringiness (glad I’m not the only one who noticed) typos, etc.

I mostly skimmed so I could’ve missed some details, but it seemed weird to me that one moment Ruby is telling Aura to go away and to never come back, and the next she’s admitting to herself that she wants to be with Aura and and have sex with her… it just seemed kinda bipolar to me, though yeah, she was trying to protect herself and Aura from Dom. But perhaps it could’ve been executed better.

I also expected more… plot? Though yes, I did pick this up partly for the spice, I didn’t think it was going to be 20% plot, 80% stripper dancing and sex (a large part of it abusive at that).
