“Just because I was born a woman, doesn’t mean I’ll let anyone stomp all over me.

~ There are so many undertones of devious things going on, this book wasnt exciting even outside of the relationship between kyle and rai. i just found kyle extremely immature and rai was said to be "girlboss" but i saw none of that in her character she js cries alot throughout the whole duet.

Kyle Hunter is said to be a twisted, sarcastic and sadistic man. i have way more bad things to say than good about him he is the literal definition of male alpha and i found myself laughing out loud at the things he says to seem "tough" and i kept cringing when he constantly kept putting the damn sex toy in her and turning it on every time they were alone or surrounded by the brotherhood it wasnt attractive of him at all. his personality was nothing but disturbing i hope i never stumble upon a male character as cringe and disturbing as him in any book.

Rai Sokolov was described as tough, powerful and stubborn. i kept looking for those qualities in her character but i just couldnt. those qualities were nowhere to be found.
i simply found her annoying and weak. i have nothing else to say about her. goodnight.

~ the only thing i liked about this read was the characters. the ones other than kyle and rai and also the aesthetic the book holds made me feel things! it was also very fast paced.

~ i hope i never read a book with characters that were this annoying and cringey. stay safe yall.

~ thank you youssra for buddy reading with me 💌
