I read this author's THE SAVAGE FALL duet, and although I wasn't a fan of how she wrapped that duet up I still felt she had some fantastic writing chops. When I read the synopsis for this one I thought it would be right up my alley. Plus, I figured I would be more prepared for the level of darkness this author likes to impart after tackling the above mentioned duet. (lol)
And indeed this one isn't for the faint of heart, that is for sure. The writing was excellent. The pace perfect. The plot incredibly engaging. Dark. Twisted. Uncomfortable. The sex was rough and forced. No OW or OM drama, although the heroine is married. A small cast of interesting secondary characters with secrets of their own. This hero wasn't in the least bit likable. A true anti-hero. He physically hurts the heroine. He has a temper. He is nasty. But f-cking hell is he intriguing. The heroine...well I am not yet sure. Is she weak? Is she broken? Is she batshit crazy? I guess time will tell. Last, it all wraps up in a crazy as f-ck cliffhanger that makes me wish I had book two right now!
I loved this one from beginning to the end. Fingers crossed book two continues the greatness.
