No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
This may just be the worst book I have ever read.
The main character is flat with no personality. The absolute definition of a Mary Sue. Except that she has a "darkness" in her (seriously if I have to hear about the darkness one more time I'm going to lose it). Every man who interacts with her falls for her (I wish I was joking).
The men are absolutely fucked in the head - yes, I know it's dark romance and they're meant to be, but at least in other dark romance books they have redeeming qualities. They are also brothers, and I cannot get behind incest. They do what is legally classed as rape multiple times to the main character, but apparently it's ok because she enjoyed it? Also, they hide her birth control and she barely bats and eyelid and then feels EXCITED at the prospect of having their babies. WHAT THE FUCK.
Every chapter felt the same. The plot (and I use that term very loosely) was weak, and the investigation chapters all read exactly the same. I felt like the author could have done a lot more showing rather than just telling me in summary what happened. The entire backstory is not even remotely hinted at once and feels like it comes out of nowhere. The writing is poor and not cohesive.
In summary, I hated this book with a burning passion.
