PLEASE READ TRIGGER WARNINGS BEFORE READING THIS BOOK

I think I’m being objective of this book and because it just was sooo right for me and at the perfect time. It definitely it’s a strong book but I wouldn’t say dark romance, it has RH which is one of my favorite things in romance and even though the MCs do have the mentality of their age (and for me is not quite my liking to be reading it because sometimes it makes me cringe) I truly enjoyed this book soo much. The FMC sometimes made me cringe the way she tries to face whatever it’s in front of her but being realistic if the MMCs had longer and more chapters they probable would make me cringe too, I love them and each of their personalities but they are still teens and their way of thinking it’s just not always great for me. Couldn’t put it down and I will definitely be reading the second one, and hopefully this book takes me out of a reading slump that I simply can’t get out of.

Ebook. Purchased. Lots of CW/TW.

I haven’t read many reverse harem books but this one made me want to only read RH from now on. Fierce Kings and their Queen, I loved it.
Starting book 2 now.

A. Richardson can write some good spice! This is pretty fast paced, with the bully aspect falling away pretty quickly. Enjoyed the different traits the various men had, it balanced out well. Wasn't expecting to have a scene about the fmc's SA, so that threw me a little. Overall it's a decent, fast read but don't expect a ton of depth as it's a fairly short story.

This was my first step into reverse harem and, not knowing what to expect, this was not disappointing.

I liked each of the characters and the whole stepbrother/stepsister trope is very good!

Spice scenes are good and I love that it's not just M/F

This book needs to be 400 pages. A lot of telling and not enough showing done by the author.
