no. no no no. this was so unhinged. girl needs friends wtf. i felt like i missed some crucial details too, like suddenly something happened? suddenly someone knows something and usually we got to know how or why but then like- we didn't? still entertained tho. almost missed my boarding group 

i’m gonna read the next one tho. 

spice 🌶  - a 4 🌶  spicy (romance.io scale)
length - just right
reading speed - read in 1 days
did it make me cry? - NO.

the things lincoln did got too much for me. I simply didn't care for the relationship and honestly I feel like I have read it before and simply didn't care to finish.

madhattermommy94's review

This was just bad. It felt like the author tried to mix Haunting Adeline and hockey romance and just came out jumbled. The synopsis had me SO excited and then it just fell flat. Half of the text messages were in bubbles the other half were italicized. He came off as a psychopath whereas she came off as a stupid Bambi. I'm going to jolt at the smallest movement and run away but pressure me into going out with you and then tattooing my name on your dick and I'm in love. It just got too ridiculous.

Monroe & Lincoln 
Amazing banter 
Forced proximity, He's absolutely OBSESSED with her, even in ways that can be deemed toxic. 
Monroe and Lincoln both deal with their terrible childhood pasts and help each othr get thorugh it by understanding adn supporting one another. 
Lincolns best friend, Ari is such a solid side character through it all, very mysterious. 

I can not believe he chains her to the bed *gasp* He is beyond obsessed by putting a tracker INSIDE of her and making it seem like he was just putting her on birth control. The audacity of this mans possessiveness does strange things to me.

TW: SA

This is a dark “romance” where the MMC happens to play hockey. There’s no tags or CWs anywhere in sight and it’s very poorly written. There’s a whole host of issues with the book itself but also this author behaves badly. Reporting low reviews and bashing bad reviews. Towards the end of the book she tells in no during a sexual encounter and he continues on. It is not CNC it’s straight up rape. Just because it’s not explicitly physically violent doesn’t make it something else.
