I don't know how many years i have to wait now for 3 more books, probably 2030 but fine. i'm mentally drained because of JasRoth because what the fuck is wrong with them? most importantly, with Roth. and in these whole three longggg books they've just been together for 40 days. F O R T Y.
i don't understand his hot and cold behavior. this started off good. the confessions and misunderstandings from the past were KIND OF cleared, and Roth became a full teddy bear and promised her that he'd try to be the best version of himself and all. i'm like fine because at least he's about to try. i never expected groveling, so it didn’t matter that there was none.
BUT,
after 75%, HE CHANGED? like a complete shift from that soft Roth to the previous asshole that he was in books 1 and 2, and Jasmine was just mentally exhausted and hurt by this because ONCE AGAIN she made a fool of herself. this wasn't it, the chapters are so fucking long, and i mean it, SO FUCKING LONG that the whole BALL scene took 100 pages? 😭 and too many things happened there, and i just wanted them to GET TO THE POINT? 😭 like ffs, stop telling descriptive paragraphs about a businessman, their mother, father, sibling, dreams, goals, achievements. i'm not interested ✋🏻
i literally thought i'd like it! BITTER CONFESSIONS YOU SAY? well, aside from those first two chapters, THERE WERE NO CONFESSIONS! i was ready for my theory about him killing his own father to be true, but this book didn’t even TRY to touch that secret topic. these two books were so long, and not for good reasons! besides, all those cute scenes that both of them had, i really don't care about after the way he treated her at the 75% mark. Jasmine truly deserves so much better, and i just cry for her. she does make some dumb decisions, BUT she's just so damn good i can't hate her. fuck Roth. like how dare you ignore her again and be cruel! the last chapters were so sad and how she was crying after being belittled by literally everyone INCLUDING ROTH at the ball 😭 i would NEVER!
i did sympathise with Roth because Jas' father literally played with his insecurities and blackmailed him to sign the divorce papers and told him that she's with other men because THEY'RE ON HER LEVEL and that was so fucked up? all things her father did to Roth were actually cruel and i really don't think he's wrong for taking revenge 😭 like fuck being the bigger person, ruin them BUT plsplspls don't hurt jasmine 😢 everything was seriously going so fine till 75% and just give roth's pov book already
“Your family has said and done countless unforgivable things, but you don’t hold it against them. You forgive them again and again and are willing to sacrifice everything to keep that relationship going. Why am I not given the same grace for the one time I—”
“Because you meant more to me than they ever did!” Her throat ached from the scream that came from the depths of her soul.”
“You say I meant more to you than your family.” He brushed his wet lips over hers, letting her taste the salt from her tears. “You meant more to me than anyone. Ever.”
“I worked my ass off to build myself into a man worthy of you, and you let those filthy fucks defile what I worshipped.”
i'm glad this conversation was done, and even though Roth had said that he didn’t touch another woman when they were together, and i thought after the divorce too, but he just TRIED to do it with another woman before he realized that he never really was a fan of sex before Jasmine. day 3 of crying for not getting his pov because
a) his teacher took advantage of him?
b) character understanding, ofc?
they also had anal, and it was just NOT GOOD. she was so fucking in pain, and he just took it, and then she was all explaining how she's in a heavenly state, and he was all apologizing and giving her aftercare, but it was soooo weird 😭 i can't describe it much. the aftercare scenes were good though! they're throughout the books, and i enjoy them 🤭
and six books? be fucking for real if only Jasmine & Roth are there. i can't handle SUCH long books now, so i'm glad it'll take years. maybe then i'll read them! i'm also making my own conclusions because why not?
• fuck Ariana because i really don't care about her, but Colette and Lyle 😮💨💗😭 i'm already creating a soft corner for the misunderstood baddie that Colette is. my heart hurts for her. they both are my favourite secondary characters and i'll cry if we never get their book! and i need good groveling from Roth because bitch, he exhausted me sfm.

mia, mia, mia, mia, mia, mia, mia...
you evil... EVIL woman!!
you just want me to suffer dont you??
yeah i know you do actually.
so yeah jasmine roth drive me insane! are we surprised? no. they are pretty much all i talk about. they are obsession, toxicness, and insanity embodied. they are the loves of my life, my ultimate obession, and, a lot of the time, they are my every thought.
basically they are my life source.
so imagine my surprise when mia decided she wanted to be EVIL and make me go on a fucking roller coaster of emotions. MY babies 😩 thats right. mia was sick and evil and nasty and im sure she enjoyed it too! shes a sadist.
AND I ATE IT UP.
oh my god my girl jasmine. she breaks my heart sometimes. shes so fucking cute and precious, a literal princess, and of course roth had her fighting for her life (as always). and my husband roth, what a little turd. hes so fucking hot and cold lmao. that man has me giggling, kicking my feet one moment and the next he's got me teary eyes and the next he has me ready to mother fucking punch him with my twig arms!!
the beginning of this book was INTENSE. i LOVED it. i loved them hashing things out, roth wanting to get to the bottom of stuff (minus HIS secrets of course). i LOVED how they did work through a lot and we saw a different side of, i feel like, both of them! and the middle when they were happy and jas was free and roth was being his alternate teddy-bear self (YES HE IS A TEDDY BEAR DO NOT ARGUE WITH ME!! he's just a little damaged guys!!) they were SO FUCKING CUTE. they had my cheeks hurting from how much i was smiling!
and then came evil roth...
SIR!! we were doing so well! i think jas got a little to close and he started feeling a little too vunerable and BOOM evil roth defense mechanism! (it's okay lil guy i love you no matter what!! evil, sweet, dirty, tender, sick, nasty, loving, i accept every part of him <3)
but yeah that last third of the book had my chest ACHING!! i was eating it up cause i love me some angst, but my god MIA, you really went for my heart you evil woman!! MY BABIES JUST NEED EACHOTHER they are just too caught up in all the drama to be able to have eachother fully, but thats okay because they will get through this and be the happiest, most in love couple to exist and will have LOTS of jasmineroth babies!! 😏
MIA, you see that^^ you read that^^ yeah i know you did. take notes!! 😇
anyways, i love them. i loved this book. i need the next one now 😊

i want to ***. they’re the best failed marriage of convenience in crisis to ever do it 🫶🏻.
October 2, 2024
“There was no need. She finally got it.” In fact she didn’t get it! When will Jasmine get some self respect and leave EVERYBODY, fck roth and her entire family. GIRL LEAVE! MIA for the love of God, this cicle you’re writing needs to end, two more books of this is just plain money grab bs.
"What better revenge is there than dressing the woman who ruined you like a slut, using her father's reputation to establish yourself, and then casting her aside once you've squeezed everything you can out of her? Even / can appreciate the poetic justice in”
How hasn’t she stabbed him yet? DO IT self defense fck it

Yasss queen give us nothing 😍😍😍😝😝🤪
The series just gets worse and worse apparently it’s going to be 6 book in total so 2 more books of disappointment.
This is where ao3 tag #pornwithoutplot should be. Mia please babes why are you writing each book with the same issues not being solved. Jasmine is becoming a whiny,needy, wishy washy character of a cunt. And my baby Roth is becoming an annoying ass prick 😔
🎵it’s alway once step forward and three steps back🎵- that’s how the whole book felt like when you finally think progress is being made but it’s really not.
At this point Mia is just writing to write just repetitive shit it was basically book 2. Just go write another series at this point 💀this story ain’t going anywhere

This is so hard for me to write. I have gone back and forth on if I wanted to write this or just let it go since I know she and other authors get very upset when they get negative comments. This is one of my favorite authors. I love everything she puts out, and even if it is not what I am interested in, I read it and love it because she is such an amazing author. I have read all of her other work and love it all.
This. It was just exhausting. I feel like the story has fizzled out. It’s almost like she has nothing left to write about this story or not sure she knows where this story is going. For example, we have the first 7 or 9 chapters about the same night from the end of the last book. I was waiting for so long for this story that was supposed to be all the confessions and secrets. All of the things we had been waiting for. For years since she doesn’t put these books out fast. And the secrets and all of the confession’s must be in the next book. Or the next one. Or the one after it. Since this is now a 6 book series, which was not what we started at when she released the first book. Sure, we did find out some stuff but nothing about the big secrets which are about Roth and Lyle’s secrets.
I will still read the rest of the story just because I am too invested and can’t leave series (even bad ones at this point) until I know the ending.

let me get this right? it took mk this many years just to write 25 chapters total of 400 pages. maam i expect 600 pages in this bitch bc you said you have so much to write about them, but giving us so little of nth in this bitch just to end like this bc we’re just goin’ round n round with no closure. yeah, im salty bc we need & deserved more than this. of all the years we waited for bitter confessions & finna be a decade of continuation of 4,5,6. honestly the author should have been called this “bitter realization" instead.

I love this author and her work but I was disappointed with this one. Don’t get me wrong, lots of parts in this book reminded of why I love her, her characters always have layers to them and they’re so deep you can almost feel the emotions through the words on the page. BUT, the book just fell flat. I feel like the author forgot the point of this book, we were supposed to get some answers. We were left on a cliffhanger in Book 1 after Roth almost KILLED a grandma because she was going to reveal his dark secret, it went unanswered in Book 2 where we learned Lyle also has a dark secret that we didn’t get to find out about, and in the highly anticipated Book 3 titled “BITTER CONFESSIONS” where we finally could get some answers, we didn’t get A SINGLE CONFESSION. There weren't answers on any of the major secrets. What was confessed wasn’t anything really surprising, the bulk of it was them finding out that her ruthless father lied to them both to get them separated, SHOCKER. The most interesting information was left to the last chapter with her discovering a little more about her mom and dad.
Second, I’m exhausted from the back and forth tbh. Jasmine is still getting her dignity and pride trampled on in Book 3, it’s just too much. I’m getting humiliated on her behalf, how is he still calling you a whore this deep into the series? I’m sorry, idc how good the dixk is, you got to have a little bit of pride which is something she used to have, something I actually loved about her character. She was unique to me because she didn’t stick around in her first marriage when she felt she was unloved and disrespected. It was refreshing. She lost that in this book.
Third, he was a little too violent for my taste in this book and I feel like the author and the character of jasmine herself just brushed it off. I’m ok with there being a touch of that in the bedroom to get it spicy and stuff but the choking her mid argument until she passed out and feared for her life?!! The biting and the unveiled threats of violence towards her throughout the book for me was distasteful. There was a point at the end of the book where they were at a party and Roth has a moment of jealousy. He immediately whispers to her that he will beat her in no uncertain terms. I like possessive and dark but I don’t like women beaters. I don’t even know if I’m interested to stick around for a fourth and fifth.

she’s saying this is gonna be a 6 book series… like im out goodbye 😭😭😭 would rather have a fucking baseball bat inserted in me rather than to read three more books of this pile of shit
September 25, 2024
incredible. insane. show stopping. never been done before. never will be done after. crying gagging shaking kicking my feet. heart palpitations. i had to be airlifted to the nearest hospital in a stray jacket after reading the best book of all time. shakespeare tried to do it and failed but mia knight sure DID IT!!!
October 23, 2024
next time he embarrasses her (she didn’t btw, he’s a dramatic asshole) he’ll “beat the shit out of her”?? Mia Knight are you all good in the head?? This man is verbally and physically abusive towards her and can barely utter out an apology when he starts to feel some type of guilt (which he rarely does). Or when he talks down to her like she’s a dog?? I’m surprised Ariana’s the one on drugs instead of Jasmine (even worse we have the same name) I would’ve thrown myself off a balcony by now and have Roth name checked in my death note.
October 1, 2024
It’s really unfortunate because I loved the first book… The second book was okay but repetitive. Not only do these books take YEARS to be released. It now feels like the author is drawing them out to make money. Nothing of note happens in the book. We don’t know anything new. This series will now be six books… And nothing happens. I’m also starting to hate the FMC. Her family constantly treats her poorly and she just takes it and says nothing. Her “friends” also are pushy and don’t respect her wishes. I will not be continuing this series.
I also will not be reading anything else by this author. The delay in releasing books isn’t the issue. It’s the constant change. If you have a tendency of not making deadlines, why even announce them? This book was supposed to be out early 2024… Just wait until the book is in the final stages and then announce a set date…. I find it very unprofessional. This book was also supposed to be one book, then three, now six?

IM ABOUT TO BECOME SO ANNOYING
September 30, 2024
I need more of roth and Jas asap when is the next book coming out? I loved this book, it's my favorite in the series so far. I think Roth had a lot of growth in this despite his many shortcomings. I loved all the sweet domestic moments between then and how roth opened up a bit. I loved how possessive Roth is even though he does overdo it at times lol, my dude chill a bit. I liked that In this book we got to see more of other characters, the business world, and all the secrets and things that go on behind the scenes. This book/series is Marriage in Crisis done well, I would recommend to anyone who likes dark romance with grey mmcs. Thank you to the author for this arc.

never been so devastated and miserable the ending wrecked me

did not enjoy the meta rants about writing fiction and such. pulled me right out of my suspension of disbelief and is just weird. it could've been included in the blog or something, not in the novel.
i love this series too much to give it up (hence the generous 3) but that was way too many words just for the plot to barely even move and for the confessions to be few and not that central to the MCs. i fear the author doesn't know where this story is heading. at this point, if we continue in this pace maybe we'll have to be waiting for book 50 before roth's secret is revealed.

i think I spent 70% of the book sobbing and wanting to protect jasmine and 30% of the book having a whiplash over Roth, I never know what to expect from this guy but maybe that’s why I love it sm🤭
this book has served me the best ever angst I’ve ever read in my whole life. the push and pull had me SCREAMING and the cold Roth had me wanting to kill him but the warm one had me wanting to fall in love.
this was no doubt my fav in the series and the ending- I CANT. It was so painful omg 😭😭 I need the next book asap

400+ highlights and i fear no one can beat james roth as the best man ever written in dark contemporary romance, especially set in a business setting. him being a manipulative, controlling, pyschopathic, obsessed fucker made him so sexy like that’s my king for life.
i have to admit the story is a little bit too slow for my liking and after the confessions, there are a LOT of domestic scenes and everything just ate to the point i’m enjoying it a little bit too much. they only had one year to satiate each other’s company so i think the slow timeline is justified. also everything is happening so fast so i understand why jasmine is batshit going crazy now but that’s mother.
the last six chapters are actually really entertaining and it’s depressing i have to wait years for the next book, it’s gonna kill me fr 😭 there are many things to consider and to uncover. tbh i couldn’t care less about the others’ shits. i just want to know more about roth’s secrets. probably a little bit of lyle, too.
