4.5 Deliciously Unhinged 🌟s !!!
Omg this book was fucking perfection, felt like it was custom-made for all my fave tropes and preferences (aka kinks 😉)
The male lead was the perfect package of morally-grey unhinged, psychotically obsessed, possessive af and absolutely insane for the fmc at first glance 💕
This man had me clutching pearls and throwing my morals out the window, desperately fanning myself, swooning and questioning my sanity all at once I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF IT AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE MINDBLOWING SMUT🔥😍

I really want to read Valentina and Matteo's story next, waiting impatiently 😊

Atrocious, bland/boring with zero chemistry, also couldn't stand the stupid fmc and her ridiculous childish personality 🤮

Boring and cringe, a complete waste of time. Also seemed like it was written by a middle-grader on wattpad 😕

✨️THE IRREDEEMABLE VILLAIN/MORALLY GREY MMC (aka the conquering, apathetic, cynical, manipulative, genocidal, psychopathic sadist: Remus) GETS THE FMC AND STAYS "EVIL", ALSO HAS A SOFT SPOT/WEAKNESS ONLY FOR HER✨️

*** Ladies and gentlemen, Remus and his never-ending list of abhorrent atrocities will have y'all clutching them pearls and running screaming for the hills, so leave your morals and sanity at the door. Plz proceed with caution and heed the trigger warnings cuz this is DARK...😳

This was one heck of a rollercoaster so fucking epic ! Writing this with tears in me eyes, I need book 2 asap ! Pet: Genesis is now alongside Heart's Prisoner as my fave sci-fi books of all time 😊
This new author deserves all the praise and recognition 💕

3 ⭐️s.
This book started off really strong with an awesome plotline and the forced/arranged marriage trope, the Male Lead was a powerful dominant Mafia Don and an absolute sweetheart with a soft spot only for his tesoro wife 💕 But then "certain events" happened and unfortunately the story became very boring, repetitive, with atrocious cringe smut plus bad inconsistent characterisation and terrible writing/dialogues...
