Dark Obsessions by Effie Campbell
2.0

I'm all for an OTT, possessive, morally grey hero, but I almost DNF this one. I liked Mac, but Katie annoyed me way too much. I did feel for her, though; she lost herself somewhere in between being abused and assaulted by her ex-boyfriend (who was her boyfriend 60% of the book). BUT WHY DIDN'T SHE LEAVE HIM!?? HE CHEATED ON HER AND SHE KNEW BUT I don't why she didn't break up with him.

Also there was no plot and more smut and I am ok with that but there was no connection build up between heroine and hero. It was vague and boring. I struggled throughout the book.

One star is for me completing the book.
Second star is for the family members of hero who kept me a bit entertained.

‼️There is Cheating (not between the main characters), no ow drama, check the triggers, there is body shaming as well‼️
