"I love you, bunny.
My love doesn't need you to tend to it. It exists no matter what you do. It is a love reliant on your presence, not your actions. Forgive me. You are helpless against it.
"

god, this book. it is so healing in a lot of ways. i wish those you were wounded in the past have someone like desmond in their lives. you deserve it.

“We're addicted to each other, Colette. It's the most despicable thing in the world." Air leaves him, and he gazes at the ceiling of the dim garage. "You have to have felt the emptiness these past few years we've been apart. If you haven't, I might just cry myself to sleep tonight. Seeing you again is like remembering my favorite color. It is so dreadfully dull without you around. I don't know how either of us has survived."

can’t believe it took me this long to finish this book. work is really beating me in the ass. anyway, before any of you picks up this book, just know that the relationship between colette and velspar is toxic. i didn’t mind it much because i didn’t take it that seriously. 

i will say that i think this book could have benefited from a bit of spice. i’m not saying this because i’m hard up for spicy scenes either. it’s just that our two main leads have mad chemistry, so it’s almost odd for me to read their intense scenes without a consequent spicy ones, you know?

You distract the oxygen in my cells with how precious you are. I don't mean to hurt you for my own enjoyment. There's a difference between teasing you harmlessly, and causing you pain. I go too far sometimes. I don't know when I have until it’s too late, But, Amber." I look back at her. "You can alway tell me, and I will correct or explain myself. You're my wife. You are dear to me.

this is why you don’t judge a book by its cover because this book was so good! my only complaint is that the cover doesn’t really do the big any justice. i love heroes like liam. it was never explicitly mentioned, but to me he belongs to the antisocial personality disorder spectrum. this book isn’t a dark romance, so he’s not completely “evil” but there are things that you will see him do that doesn’t really fall inside of the norms. 

besides that, i also loved how quirky and unapologetic liam was. this is the guy who still loves barbie movies and has stuffed animals in his bedroom but it doesn’t make him any less sexy. i also loved amber and could relate to her inner struggles with writing and also her height (i’m her height).

this book couldn’t be anything more than a one-star because it was so unbelievably bad! i don’t even know what i just read. there was no rhyme and rhythm to anything, and i felt like i was given an incomplete book. 

first of all, we don’t know why owen was so obsessed with kira—it literally made no sense. the first few chapters were basically of owen reiterating over and over again how kira belongedto him. it was all, “you’re mine, you’ve always been mine” like a broken record. like okay, sure. but why? why do you like this girl so much? except for some generic explanations, i just didn’t see it. it would be great if the authors did a better job at setting up some foundation for these two, but i guess they didn’t care enough to write anything more in depth. 

second of all, owen raped kira. and just in case it wasn’t bad enough, he had other men gang rape her too! it was appalling. i couldn’t help but laugh at how owen decided to avenge kira and redeem himself. he did that by hurting all the men who raped her—the same group of men he told to rape her. like? okay. 

he also made kira rape him too! if that could even be called that since he consented to it. overall, what a horrible book!
