👀Tropes: Dark Romance (really dark) with revenge, sex with interesting objects, and much much more.
☠️CW: Straight from author's website - Warning: This is a dark romance that contains rape, graphic violence and sexual assault, explicit sexual situations, strong language, human trafficking, PTSD, and kinks such as degradation, knife play, blood play, and somnophilia.
📚Read Method: Physical book, Kindle eBook, Audible
📕Review: Beginning of book notes... "everything hurts". Every time I read this, I just hurt, even though I know the ending. HD Carlton has a way of writing heartbreak that I will never understand. She throws in these little nibbles of happiness/humor when all things are going to shit. Like chapter 13 Mama T and Z sitting eating chocolate chip cookies when he meets the Basilisk Brothers. It's a small win when this book can make me smile when it's so sad.
Beware of Chapter 18. It will literally break you. and Chapter 22 will tape you back together.
💖Quotes:
"You keep threatening me to marry you, shouldn't I know your last name?"
"My birthday is September 7th" "Doesn't surprise me you're a virgo, next"
"Meadows, baby. Our last name is Meadows. "Yours. Don't get ahead of yourself, your going to have to beg"
