I have given this baby a 4.75⭐️. 
This book has an excellent dark plot, covering some very real issues and it’s triggering, and traumatising, and just a lot at times.
But this is honestly some of the most top tier smut I have ever read in my life. This book is hot af and has made me question myself, holy hell. Do I need to have my soul redeemed now? Am I a masochist? Where can I get my own deep-voiced, fit, scarred, dangerous, hooded, murderous, dubious-consent, obsessive, dominant but also vulnerable, stalker? please and thanks, hah!
The story ends on a dangerous cliffhanger, which I love. Can’t wait to read the second part of this duet and take on more ✨trauma✨.
