Once the hero came around he was very protective of the heroine. I hated that they had a relationship building before (view spoiler)[ the interrogation incident (hide spoiler)]. It took me out of the romance and I wanted the hero to own up to his mistakes more. Heroine was a badass in her own right. She would do anything to protect the ones she cares about. Her husband was a sadistic POS.
Dark read No OW drama Triggers(view spoiler)[ violence, gore. The torture incident referred to in other reviews was actually not what I would consider torture in dark romance. He basically hung her up by her wrists, edged her and left. He felt bad about it after and even doctored the scratches on her wrists. My issue wasn’t what he did it was that he did it after they each developed feelings. Also his reason for feeling betrayed was pretty weak. (hide spoiler)]
Not a fan that she had to save herself most of the time.
HEA- but ends abruptly. Will continue with another couple in the next book....more

Only a couple sex scenes. Sex scenes were descriptive but not exactly steamy. Blink and you might miss that first one.
Loved the heroine-sweet, caring, honest and open. No stubborn sassy attitude here thank goodness! Loved seeing her build her strength through out the story.
Hero(s) loved that they were ex military, very protective Heroine loved to see her growth through out the book. She was sweet and eventually found her Hero(s) loved that they were ex military, very protective Heroine loved to see her growth through out the book. She was sweet and eventually found her voice. Her little 5 year old girl was adorable and was a big part of the book
Cons:
There were not many sexy scenes unfortunately ...more

(view spoiler)[ The amount of abuse the heroine suffered as a child would have resulted in PTSD, scars, evidence of hospital visits. The heroine had none of that with the exception of some fears. The heroes are supposed to be security experts….yet someone is able to come into the house with a key??? The obsessed heroes aren’t even monitoring the heroine safety at home while they were gone (hide spoiler)]...more
Let me start by saying I love crazy. Crazy and sneaky….crazy and wild…….crazy and high…..really any combinatOhhh Raven…../ What can I say about Raven……
Let me start by saying I love crazy. Crazy and sneaky….crazy and wild…….crazy and high…..really any combination except crazy and TSTL!
That is what Raven was…crazy and stupid. She could be a crazy badass if she had Caelian at her back but the second she was on her own she became a whimpering mess. I have read through 2 books now where Caelian is trying to teach her control. Where the f@#$ is it!?!? There is no control! Not even a hint of progress.
I’m going to finish this series because I don’t want to quite now but I’m so bummed ...more

Heroine was not the unfeeling badass I was hoping for. She is a whiny hothead. For a fighter she rarely fought back when it was necessary.(view spoiler)[ Your telling me after all the fights she was in and the training the hero was doing with her…she couldn’t put up a decent fight with her aunt and uncle? What happened to sensing your enemy? Their moves! Their intentions! It was like we got two different people and it was so frustrating. I guess that raging beast inside her was not the smartest monster that ever was (hide spoiler)]...more
(view spoiler)[ Interesting feeding kink. It made sense given the couple’s background. Still not really my thing and not something I found particularl(view spoiler)[ Interesting feeding kink. It made sense given the couple’s background. Still not really my thing and not something I found particularly sexy coupled with the “humiliation” aspect. Obviously there was a lot of oral sex in this. Very hot how it was described. I’m just not a fan of the degradation/humiliation aspect that was woven in. There was quite a bit of edging to the point where it got repetitive and exhausting. The hero’s dislike of the heroine and need for revenge seemed stupid and at odds with how he acted most of the story. The dancing scenes where very fun and erotic. I actually wish we got more of those. The sex scenes themselves didn’t do much for me (hide spoiler)]...more
Some dark elements but a lot sweeter than I expected. Loved to see Elena’s growth throughout the story. Frustrated with just how brainElena and Ashton
Some dark elements but a lot sweeter than I expected. Loved to see Elena’s growth throughout the story. Frustrated with just how brainwashed she was but I get it. Ashton was very considerate of her feelings but was determined to give her the push when needed.
Beautiful, emotional, triumphant story of one overcoming what has happened, accepting what is and embracing the future!
Seneca was such a strong heroinBeautiful, emotional, triumphant story of one overcoming what has happened, accepting what is and embracing the future!
Seneca was such a strong heroine. All the shit her pack and previous alpha put her through was disturbing on so many levels. From the bastard alpha/evil betas to the ones that turned a blind eye to all the wrongs. She thought she came out of it broken when in actuality she is the perfect match for her savage❤️
Tyran was one of the best alphas I have read about. He was cut throat, demanding, protective, stubborn and a little bit of an asshole...more
