EXTREMELY dark and DEPRAVED
This was one of the most trigger filled, dark, depraved, and absolutely messed up book I've ever read. Please, PLEASE, read the warnings and exit out if it's not something that catches your attention, because this book is FKED UP! I freaking loved it, so I'm not sure what that says about me but oh well 🤷♀️🤣🤣 I would definitely recommend this to the girlie's, guys, and they's that love 🩸 relationships and dark ASF reads!

terrible day to be literate and have a curious mind when someone says this is the most bananas thing you’ll ever read (they were right, and i’ve read a lot of insane shit tbh)
however unfortunately for my eyes it hooked me good and quick with all the crazy so i did read this in one sitting 😂

Readers said “I want something so taboo and extreme it makes me sick”

Wow. I can’t believe this book hasn’t been banned on amazon 😅 This book is super dark, extremely taboo, and has some very rough scenes in it. Actually, I’d say 80% of the book is rough so if you find anything triggering you might not want to read it. Now I really don’t know how to review this book because… well, it’s just a ball of darkness, so I’ll add some of the most triggering things and scenes in a spoiler tag below. Don’t worry though, I won’t spoil the twist even though I’m sure many readers will figure it out pretty fast!

I don’t like when a character goes through abuse and then abuses other people but “it’s okay because they were hurt too”. Like fuck that. Hunter tortured and raped his younger siblings because their father did it to him but they were completely innocent. Like yes it is awful that Hunter went through that but the moment he did that to his siblings he was no better than his father regardless of his reasoning.
Also, the torture Hunter put the siblings through were not equal. He obviously favored Asher bc he was more gentler with him. When he fucked him he used lubed & went slowly. When it came to Alice, Hunter pissed on her and forced to drink it, she was tied up while her vagina was mutilated by needles then double penetrated by her brothers. He also put ice cream on her mutilated vagina while Hunter fucked her. I cannot believe she forgave them. Especially while it was happening she was wishing for death in that scene. I was proud of her when she stabbed Hunter’s eye. I just wished she would have killed him. And I’m not saying Asher deserved to go through what Alice did. Just that Hunter clearly favored one twin than the other based on the treatment.
This book would be ten times better if Alice killed her whole family and then got to live her best life alone because the amount of stuff she went through by her brothers were awful.

🔥🔥🔥🔥
Last book of the year and it was a banger!
I have questionable morals and even this had me scratching my morally gray brain a bit.
Good premise, the twist was twisted but not surprising. Perhaps, I daresay, a bit too smutty?

Sometimes I honestly just wonder what went wrong with me 💀 Like why do I read this stuff 😭 But also I would rather burn myself alive than do anything mentioned in this book with my sibling.

Did I agree with what was happening? No.
Do I think it’s okay for siblings to be together? Absolutely not.
But did I finish the book anyway? Yes. Every page.
Did I tear up? …Yeah. Maybe it’s just my mental state right now, but it hit something.
And do I crave the kind of love they had? Totally
even if it shouldn’t exist that way.
Three stars for the writing and the pacing.
And honestly, I survived this book by pretending they weren’t siblings.

For those who like the genre... I recommend it!

What does it say about me when a book this fucked up doesn't even faze me 😎
Twins kidnapped and tortured by a maniac; made to do some truly depraved things to each other and the kidnapper. Some things come to light and man, was it a doozy.
I honestly felt this would have had a bigger impact if there wasn't a happy ending. In some instances, a sad ending is chef's kiss to really hit you in the feels. I wish Yolanda Olson had written this instead, she would have knocked it out of the park with this subject matter.

Very dark, very spicy, very messed up.
Def check TW/CW. This is heavy w/ torture & made my stomach turn at parts. You’ll be put through the wringer but once you make it out the other side…it’s good. And by other side I mean the epilogue.
It’s akin to watching a torture horror movie. It’s gross but intriguing in an absurd way so you kinda keep one eye open until the very end. I’d call this erotic horror but it does have love & HEA.
Idkkk, in the beginning you’ll prob be confused how it possibly EVER gets better; but if you make it to the end - you’ll be rooting for the MCs to live free and happy after all they’ve been through.
Though, I still think one person needed to do a fuck-ton more in apologizing & redeeming themself.
***Tropes & Safety inevitably have some spoilers ↓ ↓ ↓

a lot of this felt like it was trying too hard to be shocking. just nonstop torture porn and taboo content with no real purpose behind it. the pacing was completely off, and it felt like nothing was actually happening aside from the shock value.
there was no real plot development, no character growth, and not even the basic structure you’d expect from a story. the characters had no depth or personality outside of their roles in the narrative. they just felt like props thrown into this world to serve a story that wasn’t even well executed.
i didn’t connect with anyone, and the writing was cringey at times. it was all so surface level and repetitive. ESPECIALLY with how often it reminded us how “taboo” everything was. like ok duh we know that you don’t need to keep saying it.
the premise had potential and could’ve gone somewhere if done right, but it all fell flat in the end which is disappointing.

This is probably one of the most effed up books I’ve ever read. Did I devour it? Yes. Not sure what that says about me.
CHECK THE TRIGGERS BEFORE READING. This is extreme taboo and deals with blood relation.
Anyway, if you’re looking for something extremely dark, happy reading.

I was in the mood for dark romance, but I think I've found my limit on what I enjoy reading. The plot itself is good and the writing style is good, with multiple POV's, but I just couldn't get on board with the themes in this, I should have taken the trigger warnings more seriously.

⚠️Sharing= yes
⚠️Third act breakup= no
⚠️Separation= no
⚠️Cliffhanger= no
⚠️HEA/Happy ending= yes
⚠️Manwhore/ no manwhore= no manwhore
This book was disturbing in so many fucking ways. I haven’t been genuinely traumatized by something I’ve seen or read since I was a child. But this book actually made me fall asleep with the images of its most traumatizing scene replaying in my head.
Thoughts while reading:
It was a really good book until he started putting the twins against each other. Now i’m angry reading
Ok nvm. The brother got his shit together FINALLY. And regrets what he did to her. I’m not that angry anymore. But I do kinda wish they would ditch their fucking abuser and be together just the two of them. Just Kinda…he groveled sooo
No wonder why this book is banned holy fucking shit
Bitch, I need a fluffy romance after all of this. Something I’m not saying often at all…
I’m in love with this book and it’s FUCKED UP
