Reading this book felt like a fever dream. I was awed by some scenes and couldn't believe it was actually happening!
Her mother not being her mother, didn't expect that! Blake and Ryat having sex near someone they just killed. Just to name a few!
It's heavy on the sexual content but there's definitely a solid plot. The plot is what kept me reading on, I didn't expect it to be this good! Definitely going to read the rest of the series. 

I loved all the song references, I played some of them as I read it through. It definitely gives a nice ambiance as you read!

I would definitely say this is 18+ and a very dark romance. Just know what you're getting into before diving in!
