This was not what I was expecting at all. To start, I will say that I gave 2 stars because at one point, the storyline was well enough that I truly did want to know what happened next. Loved how the author was able to bring her characters to life and not just the main character. I felt like I knew most of the main supporting characters well with snippets into what made them how they are.
Spicy scenes were spicy, but it was hard to get past the fact that incest was a major part. The double standards in this book were wild as well. I love protective and territorial personalities in my readings normally with no issues, but this was a perfect display of what an unhealthy, toxic relationship is. Especislly with an under aged, inexperienced person thrown into the mix. May this type of (can't even say love) attention never find me...

I honestly struggled a bit a first due to unrelated/foster family dynamics but outside of that, it was a good story with decent spice. Additional Trigger warning if you don’t like younger FMC (turns legal during the story).
I honestly don’t know how I feel about this one. I found myself mildly uncomfortable and annoyed half the time and the other half made me giddy. I’ve seen this one all over and it was not what I thought it was. The first half was a little slow for me. It’s a spicy book with some questionable themes but if you don’t mind that, this is one you should check out. I think my least favorite thing was the characters themselves. I am a reader that gets very attached to characters and the more I like them and/or relate to them feeds into how much I enjoy a book overall. I found Tiernan annoying, Jake was rude, Noah had a sassy side that bothered me and Kaleb was just creepy. The ending also seemed a bit abrupt compared to the progression of the rest of the story.
