Carter Cross is a lunatic and I just couldn’t understand Aria’s love for him.

I will typically forgive a lot of things in a romance if the romance itself is good but this feels so forced and I do not buy their chemistry. There were actually some moments where I thought this could be an interesting thriller but not a romance.

This is a dark romance with nice world building and well written characters. I was a bit hesitant at times about the romance but in the end I really liked both Aria and Carter and their character development.
Also, the formatting was so pretty, I love seeing pictures/art work in books. It makes the reading experience so much better.
I do recommend reading the content warnings before picking it up though.
