Consent? This book hasn't heard of it. It hasn't heard of plot either, this is just almost entirely smut. That's not necessarily a bad thing if that's what you're looking for, but I wasn't aware heading into the book so page 5 or 6 being smutty was definitely surprising. The smut isn't bad (although it is absolutely wild), but it is literally every page. There is only a semblance of plot once you get to part 3, but even then calling it plot is a stretch. Also, we get that they have a "long and complicated history". "Later I'll think about..." and the constant questions Mina was asking herself did get on my nerves. I understand that these were originally sold as separate books, but I do not need a summary of what happened on the last page. This is a glorified Wattpad fan fiction without an actual fandom to be based on, but if that floats your boat no judgment, go for it.
