Nice to see that even someone like Jordanna can find her Equal You can not choose who you fall in love with, but that only makes it more interesting. The book quenches easy and the characters are deepened enough. Also later in the book, the story remains interesting . This is because the problems of a particular life style emerge. It's true that you can not change overnight.. But if you love someone enough, anything is possible!

This has got to be the most fucked up book I have read in my entire life. Jordinna is fucked up, she's a sex addict, a killer, an abuser, a sex user, has a bad tongue, oh she's just bad.

I love this book. The characters are so great and it’s very twisty. Obviously over the top but so good. Can’t wait to read the sequel.
