I really hate DNFing books, especially at 10% like I did with this one. I’ve never DNFed a book this early into reading it… But I just couldn’t stand the flow of the book, the way both characters acted, thought and talked. I’m no prude, but to have every other word be an explicative not only coming out of the characters mouths but also present in their thoughts as well was quite excessive.

There was a lot of contradictions within the first few chapters. Not to mention the prologue which comes right out of left field to slap me in the face. There needs to be a warning for that! It’s a trigger for people!

I do condone Sydney for not letting the trauma she experience ruin her life, although it does kinda rule it. She has night terrors, and swears off men. But two seconds later she’s checking out Damien.

Damien was so full of himself it wasn’t even funny. He sees himself as a man-whore, with a revolving door of women. I’ve never seen someone so full of themselves in my life.

The dialogue was some of the most awkward and forced I have ever seen. Even the writing itself seemed really off. There were many grammatical mistakes, words and sentences didn’t flow, or even make much sense sometimes. I’m not sure how extensively this was edited, but it really needs another go through.
