I’m sorry babes 🤡
This was straight up glorification🥴! I love dark romance but what was this. There was no growth in any of the characters. It was extremely stagnant. IF YOU LOOK IN THE DICTIONARY FOR THE WORD CONTRADICTION ZADES PICTURE IS THERE! How! HOW! Can he “save” women and children and then turn around and do what he continues to do to Adeline? The book glossed over that 🧍🏾♀️. Please help me to understand how any possible relationship can be formed between the two of beside Stockholm and abusive? The .5 was because it had potential.
