My life was good. My life was normal. My life was stolen away in the blink of an eye. At eighteen-years-old, I was kidnapped and sold. Purchased by a couple who'd put their life savings into rescuing a stranger, with only one request... I'd befriend their mentally-unwell son. So, I did. And he made it easy, being everything I needed to escape the darkness in my own head. But it was all lies. I was never meant to be a friend. I was here for a purpose, a means of controlling someone they couldn't. Someone volatile and unpredictable. Someone who could switch from my dream guy to my worst nightmare without a warning. And I'd made the mistake of getting close to him before seeing all sides of him. And that left me defenseless.

The author wrote a beautiful yet gritty journey of a young woman who unfortunately watches her father lose his life only to end up in the hands of complete monsters. Trust me when I say, the author did not hold anything back. Read the TW's... this story is not for the weak. Told brilliantly in a duet narration, Mia Moreno and Sean Masters gave an incredible performance, bringing all of the feels and emotions to the surface.

This brings up the age-old question; are monsters born or are they created? This book evokes all emotions: anger, fear, frustration, hate, heartbreak, sadness, joy, swooning… all of them.

The mental health rep is a favorite trope of mine, and the Cori executed it perfectly. There were so many moving parts, multiple character developments, flashbacks within flashbacks… this book will leave you feeling raw and possibly staring at the wall. It’s a twisted dark romance that is also pitch black. I cannot stress enough, read the TW’s. I listened to the warnings but I still was not prepared. This was a brutal journey of a young girl who just wanted to be happy and free.

This one is DARK... and beautiful 🖤

This listen took me quite a while to finish. Not because it’s over 20hrs but because I needed to take breaks. I am not usually one who is triggered and this book was no exception, however the themes were so very dark and heavy that I took breaks to process. The writing was incredible and the emotional turmoil was so visceral for me!!! Mia Moreno and Sean Masters were phenomenal at bringing these characters to life in my ears.
*CHECK YOUR TRIGGERS* if you don’t normally read dark romance. This book made me feel every emotion in the book. For me, there were very few happy moments. The glimmers that we got were precious, but clouded by the realities of our MMC’s diagnosis and the FMC’s traumas. Just. I’m gonna need 5-10 business days to process what I just read. 5 stars, but OUCH DID IT HURT!

Wow. Dark, but wow!

When I tell you I finished this book and took the biggest cleaning breath of my entire life, I mean it. I listen to a stupid amount of audio books - I average 1 a day and I have NEVER had a book turn me inside out, break me, and piece me back together as many times as this one did. I just...wow. Listen to it. But first read the triggers - there is nausea inducing traumatic content.

There are no words.
