A nerv wrecking short story that turns dom/sub relationship into something more. I have enjoyed reading it but I wish it was longer.

It has potential with great character and plot ideas. However, it read more like a screenplay than a book. I was a little confused throughout the book with how fast paced it is and a few skips.

🚨 BookTok Review: Until I Knew You 🚨
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5)
This is not your soft romance. This is dark, charged, and absolutely dripping with tension.
Until I Knew You pulls you straight into a world of control, desire, and emotional risk from the very first line. The opening scene alone? Intoxicating. The club setting feels alive—shadowy, intimate, and dangerous in a way that sets the tone perfectly for what’s to come.
Adrian Wolfe is the definition of a morally grey character done right. Cold, precise, and emotionally guarded—but you can already feel the cracks forming beneath the surface. And Luca? Confident, magnetic, but layered with vulnerability that makes his dynamic with Adrian even more addictive.
🔥 What works:
- The tension is INSANE. Every interaction feels like it could snap.
- Power dynamics are handled with intention—not rushed, not shallow.
- The writing style is immersive and cinematic (you feel every glance, every pause).
- That classroom reveal?? Immediate chaos. I was hooked.
⚠️ What to expect:
- Heavy themes (power imbalance, taboo relationship, dominance/submission)
- Slow-burn emotional unraveling rather than instant romance
- Characters who will make questionable decisions
💭 My thoughts:
This story thrives on restraint—the push and pull between what shouldn’t happen and what clearly will. The emotional layering is what elevates it beyond just an erotic dark romance. There’s pain here. Control. Longing. And it’s only just beginning.
And that ending of Chapter 4??
Adrian watching from the shadows???
Yeah… this is about to spiral.
👀 If you like:
- Professor/student tension
- Dominant, emotionally complex men
- Confident characters with hidden softness
- Stories that explore power, trust, and control
…you’ll eat this up.

Promising short story. A little confusing in some parts and could do with some polishing, but on the whole I liked Luca and Adrian. This seems like a good introduction story for people who are just getting into the dark romance genre. I look forward to seeing how Jessica develops with her writing.
