What an unexpected mindblowing ride. 
This story is a Dark Paranormal Romance with serious dark & twisted vibes, great psychological display and also erotic horror. Definitely check the trigger warnings!

First I want to say how much I love the cover and how the title is actually mentioned in the story. Love the connection! I also really like the titles of the chapters, pretty interesting!

I had a lot of fun reading this because it was very unique, something I haven't read before. 
The plot is very interesting with great characters. I really like Rachel and her thoughts. Really nice that we get to see whats going on inside their heads. The descriptions were very immersive. 
The author did a great job, it's well written.

What I enjoyed slightly less (which I find hard to explain so don't shoot me if it sounds rude) is the interaction during/end the spice. When the "receiving"end all of a sudden realises that it is not what they signed up for and then they just run away. Some situations were just too weird because of it (and also repetitive).

Overall a great read and happy to have read it! I actually can't wait for the sequel because it did end quiet interesting!
