Just when I thought I couldn't get any more addicted to a trilogy, this book proved me so wrong. It completely consumed me from start to finish. It's pretty dark and some scenes were hard to stomach, but that didn't deter me or make me love the book any less. Kade... I don't think I could love this man any more. My heart ached for what both he and Stacey go through. Their journey is filled with so much pain, yet there's an undeniable connection that keeps you rooting for them. The emotional rollercoaster was intense, and I found myself deeply invested in every twist and turn. This trilogy is incredibly addictive, and I can't recommend it enough. If you're looking for a gripping, dark romance that will keep you on the edge of your seat, this is the trilogy for you.

Holy FUCK! This book was a heart attack from start to finish—I was on the edge of my seat the entire time! The second installment took things to a whole new level of fucked up, intense, and heart-wrenching moments. The anxiety this book gave me is off the charts; I've never felt so connected to characters before. My heart aches for Kade and Stacey, their struggles are beyond words. I absolutely love everything about Tobias, Barry, and Sebastian—they're such well-crafted characters. And Bernadette, wow. She's giving major Francesca vibes from the Cat and Mouse Duet. This book is an emotional rollercoaster that I can't recommend enough if you want a read that will keep you breathless and craving more.

“Because I love you. I’ve been in love with you for ages – it’s been all I’ve thought about. And I keep falling more in love with you every single fucking day.”
