I have such a complicated opinion of this book. On one side, I devoured it and it was honestly well written especially for the MC genre.
I’m mostly familiar with the MC genre on wattpad. I’ve read some great ones on there and decided I’d try and find some published ones. Honestly, I still think wattpad has some of the best.
It was honestly action packed, hot and heavy, but… BUT this was TOXIC. And honestly I think the author owns it? The characters even acknowledge it?! Lmao so I can let it slide.
What I didn’t love was the way women were treated. Specially how other women, including our FMC viewed the “sweet butts” or sexually open women. Just because a woman likes to have sex doesn’t make her a “wh*re”. Just because some women have certain kinks doesn’t make them worth less than any other woman. It just gave me the ick.
Also, my favorite part of these dark romance, gritty men vibes is when they cave and confess their undying love. I wasn’t really satisfied like that here.
BUT, but I did think that the FMC was badass. I really liked her arc. I understood her struggle with the concept of being “property”.
Overall, I’m willing to put my feminism aside for a moment for a good song and maybe… this book series too. LOL
