This is a solid read if you go into it with the right expectations. This is not a romance or erotica, but a story about an obsessive, lustful and compulsive love between two men across the ages. 
I love how the timelines all came together, and it had a satisfying ending. Please know that there are some scenes of SA, and the author uses some…..unusual euphemisms when writing sex scenes (consensual or not) that I personally hated lol (influence, pink plum, and molten lava to name a few.) I personally don’t think that most of the sex scenes were actually supposed to be sexy, but were actual plot moving scenes. I loved how distinct their personalities were in the different timelines, and I loved the references to the sleeve cutting story. I’d really recommend if it seems like something you’d be into!
