This book may not be for everyone, I personally enjoyed it. There were a few moments where I was like what did I just read?! Having said that, I loved how Alex wasn’t aware that he had a submissive bone in his body. I also enjoyed that Tracht could tell and read Alex so well.

If you know me, you’ll know that I really don’t like giving a bad review. I feel bad about it because these writers put their heart and soul into their work just for someone like me to come up and say “That was naff!”.
Luckily though, I am a tiny unimportant fish in an ocean of readers and mine is certainly not the final say on a book, lol.
Also, my Scottish upbringing won’t let me tell a lie when writing a review. I am honest to a fault.
So…here we go.
This book had me so excited to read it. It had all my favourites in it like Non-con, Dub-con, BDSM, Dark, Erotic, M/M, sci-fi.
But it fell a little flat for me.
It’s not very often that I come across a DNF but lately, I have been struggling to find books that suck me in from the beginning and I find myself losing interest pretty quickly.
And so my rule is, if, by 25% into the book, I’m not feeling it, then I quit.
Sadly this was one of them.
I just couldn’t connect with the characters. Actually just Tracht. I couldn’t find him interesting or yummy or sexy.
I love dark and mean alpha-holes but he just didn’t do it for me.
This book is heavy on humiliation and abuse combined with BDSM and M/M.
Sounds interesting and certainly the kind I enjoy (love myself a bit of M/M action) but I just couldn’y get excited over it!
I need an asshole who makes me want to punch him in the throat but also kind of wanna fuck him while I’m doing it, ye ken?
Now, I’m going to be honest. After about 25% in I swiped through the book, like I was spinning the wheel of fortune, and landed about the 70% mark.
I read a few sex scenes that were very dark and dirty (my favourites) but I had to ask myself, do I want to keep reading the boring in order to get to this..? And the answer was no.
Sorry guys, this was a DNF at 25% even though it looked interesting later on.

WOW! This book is going straight on my favorites list! Make sure you heed the trigger warnings. Do not expect this to be a sweet BDSM book or BDSM at all. Instead, expect depravity, sadism and explosive hotness, if you’re into that. It’s exactly the type of book I want!
The character development is amazing. I sincerely appreciated how Adara Wolf brings in this raw honesty with the characters. It blew me away to see that and made me emotionally invested. I could feel emotions about the characters, whether in anger or hoping for a certain outcome. The author really made the setting come alive. I felt as if I were there, even or possibly especially when I cringed!
The storyline is exceptional. It is original and one of the darker reads for me. Every page really worked and it had every kink imaginable, and some I didn’t know. It left me wanting more of Adara Wolf’s words because I’m truly addicted now!
5 stars for a twisted, dark and original read!
