My poor Juliet. I love dark romance but this is just dark, no romance. Dominic Miller is pitch black and this does not have a hea for Juliet. Dominic becomes mentally deranged after being deceived by Juliet which leads to him forcing Juliet into becoming an omega.
From all the Miller men, Dominic is the worst so be careful when reading this. I enjoyed the beginning as they were lovey dovey but I didn’t like the ending. It was rushed (it is a short novel) and I thought Juliet would have a better outcome… 🤡 I think if this novel was longer and had a stronger plot line, my rating would be higher because I do love dark stories with pitch black characters ..
Dominic Miller - 🏴 Ashley Miller - yellow flag Nathaniel Miller - reading his novel right now and he’s a 🚩/ 🏴… I still think he’s going to be my favourite Miller and him and Chrissy being my favourite ship Grayson Miller - 🚩 (however, he’s a puppy for Dane) Chase Miller - Yellow Flag (the normal Miller) Bliss Miller - 🏴 (apparently he turns his professor from a beta to an alpha .. I’m intrigued because he’s the only Miller sibling thats a dominant omega)
3.5 stars. First ZIG novel that I read, although I am familiar with the type of stories they write. Many say that this is the most unhealthy relationship out of all the Kiss Me/If You Can universe, and while they're definitely right, I really wished the execution gave me more.
The story is not for everyone. We have an alpha that won't stop at anything to get what he wants, used to always be at the top of the pyramid, and then we have a gamma that is more than what he actually shows initially.
The twist was great, although it's easy to see it coming, but it still doesn't disappoint. There's an eerie feeling through most of the novel, where you can feel that it won't end up in the best way. The thrill of sensing that something isn't right was well done.
Now, my problem comes down to the length of the novel, it is too short for this type of story and I wished it had more space for the big events to sink in, and a slower pace to make the punches hit harder. It's the one thing that didn't allow me to feel fully satisfied, because the plot definitely could've be arranged for a longer execution.
I also wished this had side stories, because after that final chapter, I really wanted more, it ended in the middle of the climax and I just really wanted the aftermath and more of their story, considering that the rest of the stories is about their legacy.
Overall, a gritty and dark BL novel that excells in the characterization of the MCs and the spiral that everything came down to.
