I guess, technically, this story could be considered that, but it tried WAY to hard and felt force all around. I was instantly pulled in from the moment Nero showed up on her balcony. I thought, "This is it! This is how you start a story!" I wanted them to sit on the couch and just laugh at the movie as if they were old friends and build a legit friendship. Her falling asleep with a total stranger on the run from the cops right next to her? It's not gonna happen. Yeh, right. L-7 WEENIE! The instant love/obsession was a bit ridiculous, and it took WAY too long in the book for any action to happen and when it does?? Disappointed isn't even a strong enough word to describe the letdown. The author shouldn't spent even a little bit of time building a friendship or literally any other reason for Nero to fall in love beside she was pretty and had a nightmare 🙄 and then get mad later because someone else calls her just "pretty." Dude had the ability, but the relationship is totally shallow, and that's hard to connect with.

The main issue I had with this was that the instalove piece wasn’t really believable to me, maybe it was the underlying tone of humor that was a bit jarring, something was off with this for me. Moreover, I feel like there was a lot of dub-con littered around this book that wasn’t necessary. Content warnings for child abuse and violence.

Mention of: rape, child abuse, mental and physical abuse, and trafficking.
I saw this book rec'd for people just getting into dark romance so I figured I'd give it a try. If you like a man with red flags you'll happily ignore...Nero is the man for you. haha So many moments of...this shouldn't be hot this is very bad behavior...and yet 🔥
The overall story of Nero and Payton was a lot of fun to read though I do wish we got a little more detail. Too many times it felt like something was mentioned, that is important and we should know more about, and then it wouldn't be mentioned again. Hoping that the next book that features King gives us a little more context and info.
