Blending into the darkness, wanting to disappear because the one thing that scares you the most comes knocking right at your door. I’ve come this far, survived but how much more can I take? With Logan, Nicky, Tey, Dalton, and Dom at my side, can I find the strength to stand up against my worst fear and fight back? The men surrounding me aren’t good guys, they hurt without remorse but I’m coming to realize I don’t want the good guy who comes riding on a white horse to rescue me. I want my villains to corrupt my soul until I’m standing on top with my hands drowning in blood and jewels dripping from my fingertips. Gone is the innocent, scared girl who ran and ran but in her place is a woman taking control of her life.

About Madeline Fay Madeline lives in rural Michigan in a castle with all her fur babies and her lovely husband. She loves to read; you’ll find her in her tower with her Kindle and drinking boba tea or coffee. She has a few addictions: chocolate is her weakness, and fanfiction Dramione. She likes to pretend she’s a main character in a Korean drama and listens to K-pop as she dances around the house. Her brain never stops creating conversations with WIP characters… You should see her Google Drive. It’s ridiculous how many tabs are opened for new stories to write. She’s a zombie half the time during the day until the coffee kicks in, but at night she watches over her city in the shadows and calls herself Batman. Not really, but she keeps hoping it might come true one day. She’s in her bat cave writing and plotting mad, evil genius stories while sipping some wine.
I'm coming to realize, I don't want the good guy who comes riding on a white horse to rescue me. I want my villains to corrupt my soul until I'm standing on top with my hands drowning in blood and jewels dripping from my fingertips.
I started "Revengeful Punks" during a short break at work. Bad idea... This is not the kind of book you're able to put down after the first two chapters... After that cliffy in the previous book, this fourth book starts with a bloody Tillie and Tey, fighting their way out of captivity. I loved all the action in this book and the resilience Tillie keeps on showing to her men and to the world. With the men finally being all in, the crazy possessiveness is off the charts and fiery hot, resulting in some veeeerrry spicy moments.
The only downside to being completely sucked in by an awesome book, is that the cliffhanger this author likes to torture readers with hits hard. I definitely had a "feel the desire to throw my kindle against the wall" - moment, but ultimately settled for a very nasty look at those final words and a crazy yell or two. I guess this author doesn't just like to torture her characters, but her readers as well... Now I definitely can't wait for book 5!
200 pages of smut with only 40 pages of actual plot. I got a reading slump by reading this book. Now don't get me wrong I love reading smut, but this book had too much of it.
Wow this book was a wild ride! Turns out Jin did kill Logan’s mom. Rig is alive! I honestly wasn’t expecting that. He is being kept in a mental hospital and drugged so he is paralyzed. But Cruz is going to take him to see Tillie. I hope he recovers and they get to have a relationship. I want to know if Logan actually wants to save Paris and if so why? Or was he choosing her to die. Or was it a mislead for a cliffhanger?! I can’t wait for the last book in the series! I need it ASAP!

Oh. My. God. This book. THIS BOOK. I don’t even know where to start because I’m so in love with everything about it. Let me just say it loud and clear: I love them all. Tey, Dom, Dalton, Nicky, and Logan—every single one of them owns a piece of my heart now. The way the author brings this story to life is absolutely magical. It feels like I’m in the book, living every single moment right alongside the characters. Every scene is so vivid, so intense, it’s like I’m experiencing it firsthand.
The action in this one? Just wow. It’s fast, it’s vibrant, and it kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I couldn’t stop turning the pages because every twist, every moment, was just that good. Honestly, I loved everything I read and then some.
One thing I’ve adored throughout this series is how the villains get their own POVs. It adds so much depth to the story, and this book continues that brilliantly. You get to understand their motivations and their darkness in a way that makes the entire plot feel richer and more layered.
And Tillie—what a queen. Watching her learn to love, trust, and fight for herself is so rewarding. She’s an absolute badass, and her journey in this book is everything I could have hoped for. I love her just as much as I love the boys, and that’s saying something.
Speaking of the boys… • Tey. Oh, Tey. His scenes are pure gold. I laugh, I swoon, and I absolutely melt every time he’s on the page. He’s the first one she sees, and let’s be real, probably the first one to love her too. Their connection is just chef’s kiss. • Dom. Sweet, intense Dom. Every time he calls her “Mama,” my heart just about bursts. He’s clearly the group’s caretaker alongside Logan, and it shows. I want more and more of him because he’s just so beautifully written. • Logan. Okay, yes, Logan made a HUGE mistake, but I get it. His pain is so raw, so real, it broke me. He’s hurting, but you can feel how much he cares. • Nicky. Oh, how he’s grown! I’m so proud of him. His development throughout the series has been incredible, and I can’t wait for more moments between him and Tey (they’re so perfect together). • Dalton. The sweetest biker ever. His honesty and openness make him so lovable, and I don’t think I’ll ever stop smiling whenever he’s mentioned.
This book also gave me the strongest found family vibes of the entire series, and that’s why it’s my favorite. The relationship between them all feel so real, so genuine…
However, just like the first book, it’s also the darkest, (Hate Jin and Franco, but hate even more Cruz), but the darker, heavier scenes make everything even more impactful.
If I could, I’d give this series a hundred stars. It’s everything I wanted and more, and I’ll be screaming about it to everyone who’ll listen and this is not even the last one, só bring it on because I need more of these incredible characters in my life!
🇵🇹
Oh. Meu. Deus. Este livro. ESTE LIVRO. Eu nem sei por onde começar, porque estou completamente apaixonada por tudo nele. Deixa-me dizer bem alto: eu amo todos. O Tey, o Dom, o Dalton, o Nicky e o Logan—cada um deles conquistou uma parte do meu coração. A forma como a autora dá vida a esta história é absolutamente mágica. Sinto-me dentro do livro, a viver cada momento ao lado das personagens. Cada cena é tão vívida, tão intensa, que parece que estou a vivê-la de verdade.
E a ação neste livro? Meu Deus, que espetáculo. É rápida, vibrante e deixou-me na ponta da cadeira do início ao fim. Não consegui parar de virar as páginas porque cada reviravolta, cada momento, era simplesmente incrível. Honestamente, adorei tudo o que li e ainda mais.
Uma das coisas que mais adorei ao longo desta série é como os vilões têm os seus próprios pontos de vista. Dá tanta profundidade à história, e este livro continua a fazer isso de forma brilhante. Ficamos a entender as motivações e a escuridão deles de uma forma que torna toda a trama ainda mais rica e bem construída.
E a Tillie—que rainha. Ver o percurso dela, a aprender a amar, a confiar e a lutar por si mesma, é tão gratificante. Ela é absolutamente badass, e a sua jornada neste livro foi tudo o que eu podia ter esperado. Amo-a tanto quanto amo os rapazes, e isso diz muito.
Falando dos rapazes… • Tey. Oh, Tey. As cenas dele são ouro puro. Farto-me de rir, derreto-me, e cada vez que ele aparece, fico toda rendida. Ele é o primeiro que ela vê e, sejamos honestos, provavelmente o primeiro a amá-la também. A ligação entre eles é simplesmente perfeita. • Dom. O doce e intenso Dom. Cada vez que ele lhe chama “Mama,” o meu coração quase explode. Ele é claramente o cuidador do grupo, a par do Logan, e isso nota-se tanto. Quero mais e mais dele, porque está tão bem escrito. • Logan. Sim, o Logan fez um GRANDE disparate, mas percebo-o. A dor dele é tão crua, tão real, que me partiu o coração. Ele está magoado, mas dá para sentir o quanto ele se importa. • Nicky. Meu Deus, como ele cresceu! Tenho tanto orgulho nele. O desenvolvimento dele ao longo da série foi incrível, e mal posso esperar por mais momentos entre ele e o Tey (eles são perfeitos juntos). • Dalton. O biker mais doce de sempre. A honestidade e abertura dele fazem com que seja impossível não gostar dele. Acho que nunca vou parar de sorrir sempre que ele aparece.
Este livro deu-me as maiores vibes de found family de toda a série, e é por isso que é o meu favorito. As relações entre eles são tão reais, tão genuínas, que me tocaram profundamente.
Porém, tal como o primeiro livro, este também é o mais sombrio (odeio o Jin e o Franco, mas ainda odeio mais o Cruz) mas as cenas mais dark e pesadas tornam tudo ainda mais impactante e poderoso nesta leitura.
Se pudesse, dava cem estrelas a esta série. É tudo o que eu queria e ainda mais. Vou gritar sobre ela para toda a gente que me quiser ouvir, e ainda nem é o último livro! Por isso, venha o próximo, porque preciso de mais destes personagens incríveis na minha vida!
This one wasn’t my favourite but it was setting everything up for the final book
Tillie is really coming into her own now with the support of the guys but Logan disappointed me when he made his choice hoping there’s more to that than it seems
Also Cruzs psycho behaviour keeps getting worse surely he can’t be any more depraved
Revenge, Regrets and Reveals 🖤 *why choose *contemporary *multi-POV *MC *Mafia *building harem (5) *contains mm *fast burn 🔥 *Dark themes *4/5 Wow this book is packed from start to finish! Picking up right after that awful cliffie of book three it seems new allegiances are in okay and the past really is coming back to haunt poor Tille 😫 thankfully now her guys are on side they really show their devotion in helping her through 🥰 I love the banter and snark between her men but also how tillie keeps them all in line! And wow how they show their love in this one 🔥🌶️😍 however that puts her in the limelight of Nicky and Los dads as they begin to realise what she means to them…. Which pretty much spells disaster with those manipulative <*-!s although that puts the fear into her men which leads to some truly regretful decisions on their behalf 😳 Tillies going to need her vengeance on several people at this rate 😬 What’s more with Doms digging into certain pasts it becomes more and more apparent that somebody’s pulling their strings all along 😡 Not only do they now have that to deal with but Cruz is also upping his sticks in trying to get his possession back….and with that shocking revelation right at the end there it appears there are absolutely no lengths he won’t go to! 😲 Sooo good I read in one sitting and need the next one like now please 😃😃
These books just get spicier and spicier, with a constant side of darkness. Revengeful Punks picks up where the previous book ended and it looks like Tillie and Tey are in trouble, but are they? Tey is definitely the kind of guy who would unalive anyone who touches his woman, and even Tillie has a few tricks up her sleeve.
There was definitely the temptation to throw my Kindle across the room when I got to the end of the book and it ended on a cliffhanger, which was surprising when I thought this was the last book. But who am I to complain, this means we get another book with Tillie and her guys. And with the amount of twists and turns in this story, you won't be able to stop yourself from reading 'just one more chapter' before bed.
Tillie and her boys are back with a vengeance! I adore this series so much (Tey and his unicorn have my heart) and book 4 elevated it to my top 5 reads of the year! There is murder, meyhem, laughs, love and most importantly SPICE! Oh what I wouldn't give to be the cream in a Tey and Nicky sandwich. The only disappointing thing about the book is that I finished it and now have to wait for the next one!
I loved this series especially the first two books. However this book I was just not feeling it. It picks up right were we left off with Tillie and Tey kidnapped in the back of a van then the story proceeds from there. It is a wild ride but there was no drama that wasn’t predictable, apart from the ending. I think what annoyed me the most was there was no grovelling from Nicky or Logan from their escapades in the previous book it was just blinked away with a few words and a stomp of a foot and should of been utilised more. I do love the characters and the world and the premise. I went into this thinking it was the final book and found out that there is another book coming. I wish they were longer to fit it all so we could of finished with this book as the final. Having said all that I will read the next one as I liked it, just not the love I felt at the start of the series.
Tillie and her boys are back with a vengeance! This book was action packed from the start after that explosive cliffhanger from book 3 I didn't expect nothing else!! Tillie refuses to be a victim from the memories of her scarred past. Can you blame her!! I just wanted to give her a big hug. I loved seeing the resilience Tillie keeps on showing to her mens and in general. I can't wait to see Tillie finally get her vengeance so she can get her HEA. So looking forward to the final book in this Fantastic series. As always my reviews are totally voluntarily and no monetary compensation was received and the opinions I have expressed are completely my own.
Tillie is back and leaving her mark. Refusing to be a victim from the memories of her scarred past-- she truly begins to soar like a phoenix from the ashes. Get ready for even more jaw dropping action, heat, and definitely some possessive alpha males 😉. This why choose romance will leave ya screaming for more, especially after that cliffhanger. These characters have indeed been on a journey, and this book showed the bond they've formed through these trials. This resilient, sassy, fierce, funny, all around awesome FMC just grabs hold of your heart and won't let go. I can't wait to see what happens in the final book.
This chapter of Tillie and her men’s story was so spicy and action packed! I cannot get enough of their chemistry!
I adore watching Tillie grow into the powerful queen we all know she’s going to be! From the beginning when she escaped the hell she was raised in to watching as she stood face to face with her biggest abuser- her journey is incredible!
The way that she interacts with each of her men, and the perfect puzzle pieces that are when they fit together. I can’t get enough of their spicy, psychotic story!
This part of their tale held a lot of new twists. Some that we knew were most likely coming, and others that knocked us off our feet! I am so excited to see where the next part of their journey takes them and the chaos that comes from those cliffhangers!
I went in thinking this was the last one but nope dragging this out. Dark & delicious as the FMC takes back her power and brings the underworld to her bidding. Side character has tourettes love it. Adds levity to all the darkness.
I love Tillie and her men in this book. We get to see them work their way to the goal of defeari g the enemies they all have. While we learn more about everyone involved. This book will leave you wanting the next now.
Get ready to ignore your people for a bit because this book will suck you in hard! Holy everything between two covers book related!! This book is HOT! This book is emotional! This book is funny, but also dark. This book is literally everything you have wanted to read and the best part is there’s more! I absolutely cannot wait to see Tillie get her vengeance. And I’m so disappointed in a certain guy, like what the actual eff dude? I’m hoping there is a logical explanation before he gets chopped up and I know this is cryptic but 100% I need a couple of hours in a spoiler room to go through all my theories. One of my favorite parts was the melt my kindle scene in the pool room, like gah fictional characters have no business being this hot! But that’s just what an amazing writer this author is, bringing all the bad boys to life and making us beg for it. Be my book bestie and read this so we can talk about it. Tey is still my favorite. This is the kind of book you scream at the author for writing and then beg for more.
Fay gives us another wonderful book! The story of Tille and her men continues as they try to keep her safe. After the explosive cliffhanger of book 3, I was looking forward to seeing how the events would unfold. I was not disappointed because we were finally able to get some action and answers, not enough, but definitely some.
Well written with complex characters and plot twists that keep you turning pages. I absolutely loved reading Revengeful Punk and a million percent recommend the Dolls and Douchebags series!! I also can’t wait to read the last book as that cliffhanger was BRUTAL and I need to know what happens next!
Once again this book gives you all the feels. Tillie and her guys are getting closer and their enemies are all starting to work together. Nicky and logan are dropped bombs about their families that have them aching for vengeance. And the cliffhanger at the end was something I didn't see coming! This book is filled with delicious smut and passion and makes you fall in love with the characters with each chapter. Tey has my heart and is my favorite unhinged mmc. Highly recommend this series
After Cruz gets ahold of and kidnaps Tillie (along with Tey), the guys band together to save them. Once they are all back together, they find themselves facing off against more enemies and corrupt men from every side.
Tillie and her guys start to form a plan. A plan to get rid of their enemies and those who are dangerous to them and their city -- mainly their fathers and Cruz.
Can they work together to take them down for good?
I liked this one and I'm still liking the series. But I didn't like it as much as the previous books. I can't pinpoint exactly what it is. Sometimes with long RH series like this, I just start to get a little burned out by this point, and I'm ready to move on. So maybe that's it. But I did feel like the pacing for this book was slower. Some interesting stuff happens, but it doesn't feel as fast-paced and exciting.
I do like where the RH is at (relationship-wise) though. They are all full-on in it and I'm so happy to see that. Maybe everything isn't perfect, but I'm glad to see them all sharing nicely.
Cruz is scary as hell. Honestly he worries me more than Jin or Franco. He's just so unhinged, man. And he's definitely going to cause some trouble before going down. I can't believe he's had Rig as basically his prisoner all these years! Yikes!
Now I have to say a few things about Tillie. Up until this book I have really liked her. But in this book she starts to do some really stupid things that make me cringe a bit.
Firstly, her behavior at the auction was so reckless. I totally get her anger. But BOY does she act like an idiot instead of just fucking WAITING for the right moment to strike. She's reckless and stupid. And thankfully it worked out, but maybe it would've gone a lot smoother if she could've just calmed the fuck down.
Then at the end of the book she has this brilliant plan to "hurt" Logan to test him or something because he went behind her back and pretended to be with Paris to make his dad think he isn't in love with Tillie. I get why she's pissed about that. But Nicky was in on that too, so why didn't he have to be punished? And what kind of test is this? Of course he's going to "choose" Paris, because he knows that if it's his real enemies then he would be showing his hand by choosing her! I hope she doesn't hold that against him because it's so obvious to me. And the whole test is honestly stupid as hell.
Still, overall I'm liking this series and I'm looking forward to reading the final book to see how everything wraps up. Yay!
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Damn does Madeline Fay step it up yet again. I was halfway through and thought the anxiety was going to raise my blood pressure through the roof. Not only that but we got hit by another cliffhanger and it might not have been as nail-biting as the first but it was sure one hell of an ending.
I have some complaints, no not really. I wanted some of these bad guys to meet their very deserving endings and while there were some wins for the crew in this book I would have loved more but this just means book 5 is going to be so action-packed it will be a one-sitting read I'm sure.
Tillie is coming more into her own and her trust in the guys is only growing, all except Nicky and Logan who are going to have to show Tillie that they need and want her in their lives.
Meanwhile, Dom, Dalton, and Tey are cementing their place in Tillie's heart and she has stolen their hearts to keep as her own.
More drama, more alpha a-holes, more hot steamy, and downright dirty moments, and a whole lot of danger and bad guys.
Another 5 stars for this series and I want book 5 NOW!!! . . . Tillie and Tey are in a tough spot and Tillie is glad just not to be alone but when her nightmare is standing in front of her she has no idea if either of them will make it out alive.
When the guys learn that Tillie has been taken each goes into alpha mode determined to get her back. For Nicky he's lost both the people he loves, with Tey and Tillie in danger he'll use all of his skill to get them back and look out anyone who is in his way.
Nicky's dad gets involved and it will only bring the spotlight on Tillie more. Logan is barely holding his anger in and his urge to end Cruz almost gets the better of him. With Tillie and Tey safe and whisked away to Dom's compound for safety Logan and Nicky will have to face their father's wrath.
They are quickly running out of time, if they don't eliminate their fathers they will only get their hooks in deeper into the guys and their plan for Tillie can't ever come to fruition. They guys will burn the world down before they let it happen. 'She's it for me, and I'll be damned if someone tries to take her from us. I'll strike a match and watch everything burn without remorse just to have her at my side.'
With a plan in place, they set out to start to put all the pieces into place to bring their fathers to their knees. Cruz is a danger that they will have to take out, his belief in his ownership of Tillie is dangerous and they can't let him get to her. 'I see someone who looks at something as an object, wanting to keep it locked up and away from everyone except himself. Obsession. Greed. Ownership. Over my dead fucking body. "Mine." Tillie is mine, not fucking his.'
Meanwhile, Tillie needs Logan to prove himself to her once and for all because if she can't trust him she's not sure where they go from here. 'Love is painful. It's not always loving. It's filled with hate, grief, and rage, but at the end of the day, the heart still beats for the one it wants. Or in my case... someones.'
This series absolutely floors me every single time. I love the flow of it, the characters, the writing style, and the story lines. Madeline knows how to grip you and keep you obsessed. When a book immediately starts with undying love right from the first few pages you know it is going to be worth every second of your time. With each and every book Tillie becomes more and more alive and it's so beautiful. The way she slowly stops being noticed for the tortured look in her eyes but the love she feels for the guys. Dom's presence in this book absolutely made it, he's by far my favorite and his unwavering dedication to Tillie right from the start is so so sweet to read. Tey is becoming more and more of a less trapped person, he's letting his wants and needs come to the surface. He is showing emotion and feeling without needing to force it. Nicky is finally getting what he needs and I couldn't be happier. He is finally getting away from the cage he has spent his whole life struggling in and he has the support to do it. Dalton is coming into his own it's still rocky but he's learning his way. His coping, understanding, and compassion are what make him such a terrific character. He is not shy about his faults but he won't pretend to change and I respect that. Finally we have Logan and he is a fighter. This book show's his insecurities, his weaknesses, and his truest depth. This group of characters is one of my favorites because while it may be far-fetched at times the emotions jump off the page. The hardships are felt and shared between reader and subject. I think this story adds so much to the entire life that everyone is living, secrets are coming to light completely. No one wants to hide and change is on the horizon at each and every corner. Of course we have our 'villains' each with a unique tie to our main characters. Cruz is Tillie's captor of sorts, he was her torturer and is too obsessed to let her leave him alive. Jin is Nicky's father he is a stone cold master fueled only by power and ruining others. Franco is our final main issue and he is Logan's dad. I hope to see him repent after the knowledge gained in this book. He has started a corrupted empire powered by sorrow, grief, and a need to never feel again. These terrible men all have a past and hopefully their fate will represent the choices they made. This book is just the epitome of hook, line, and sinker. I cannot wait to see what the author does with the final book.
Review for books 1-4 since I never wrote them when I started the series last year!
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️, it gets spicer each book 😮💨 MFC: I love Tillie. MMC(s): Literally wanted to strangle them at first. They were the absolute worst, minus Tey and Dom, but as of book 4? I love those brutal sonofabitches so much. Plot: 4/5 Book cover: 2/5 for the current ones. 4/5 for the new editions that will be coming out! Would I buy a physical copy?: Once the series is finished, yes!
This is definitely a DARK bully romance, so read those TW. These guys, even Tillie at times, are not good people at first, and honestly only show kindness to a select few as the books go on. They don’t give a fuck about much and it shows. You’re guaranteed to get pissed off, heart broken, laugh and probably feel the flutters while reading this series! There are flashbacks throughout of the trauma that Tillie and her guys are living with, so once again… read the TW!!
friggin’ Tillie. I love her so dang much. She has lived a life straight from hell, with both daddy and mommy issues galore but she’s one tough chick. Constantly keeping the guys on their toes, putting them in their place but loving them so fiercely and them doing the same in return.
I won’t lie, I haaaaated the guys at first. They were some of the worst MMC I’ve ever read. Except Tey, I loved him from the get-go the friggin’ psycho 😂 Dalton was the worrrrrst in my opinion but he’s had a lot of character growth. Nicky is slowly coming around to showing his emotions, he has a lot of his own trauma to break through but things are looking good. Dom, my sweet love. I hate to pick favorites buttttt 😍. Logan, he’s trying and every time things are smoothish sailing, he gets shit dumped on his lap from his father. I cannot wait for Franco to be taken out!
The cliffy for book four?! I’m genuinely CONCERNED, like my stomach dropped. I’m torn between understanding why Tillie did it and thinking she’s purposely setting them up to fail because that could go either way!
Also the epilogue?! WHAT? I’m hoping you know who, get the most gruesome death out of everyone.
I’ve read all 4 books so I’m reviewing the series as I read them back to back.
The book start off intense and sad, it’s very dark and has some major trigger warnings so check them. Our FMC Tillie has been born into the biker world and although she’s a ‘princess’ she’s nothing more than a captive toy. Surrounded by men who use her and abuse her.
When she finally escapes she falls into a world that is trying to consume her just as much. However the men in this world are just as unhinged but encourage her to be her true self, eventually.
This is a bully to lovers romance which I personally am not always a fan of as a trope, for a survivor of such brutality I also found it a bit of a hard read. Confusion between her feeling a victim, the shutting down and then all for it. I think there needed to be a bit more development or writing based on her before it jumped into the spice.
These are also supposed to be YA 18+ but yet again are written as if they should be more 25+ which I generally struggle with teenagers being so ‘in control’ as adults then the random school scenes.
I feel like the MMC’s all had interesting and tragic backstories but apart from some mention of it in passing or flashbacks there isn’t really any content where these are explored more.
To be honest I started to get bored about 2/3 of book 1, there was a lot of filler and for me repetitive monologues/storylines. I did read the other books but I skimmed them all and only read the dialogue. Nothing really changes for me with the story and I feel like these books could have been condensed with much less filler.
I also feel like the storylines got more and more outstretched and unreal as the books went on. I will read the last book (skim read) but from what I’ve seen of other reviews there were only supposed to be 4 so it’s being dragged out more.
Not a bad series just not personally to my tastes in a few areas
Honestly I’m bored, this books was also filler, was a little too drawn out and simply unnecessary to the plot apart from the Rig revelation.
Sadly I have more things I dislike in this book than things I liked.
Firstly, they don’t know how to solve problems, there needs to be an apology and orgasms don’t count and obviously kidnapping someone is also not a way to show if you’re sorry.
I have nothing against unhinged and crazy characters but I also draw the line when this same ones aren’t coherent with their past and fears and are just toxic and unhealthy in an actual unhealthy way.
I have read a lot of dark RH and I have seen this tropes so I understand what was the point but I don’t think this book achieved it, at least for me there wasn’t that balance between their trauma, happiness and actually healing using whatever they went through.
Once again I don’t think there was growth to the characters, even though this is a five book series there was no new depth to them as persons or as partners in their relationship.
I’ve got nothing against voyeurism but was doing the dirty in front of your enemies, parents and sick people necessary?? No, it was not.
I totally agree there’s power in sexuality and giving control to your partener as well as taking it but I don’t think that was justly represented in this book, for me it was degrading without being empowering and sometimes just cringe and toxic.
I can’t press enough that little bitch is the worst must horrible disgusting pet name ever.
