To start, let me say if you haven't read the Cat and Mouse duet I just don't think this will hit so much. But if you have then this is a must read. The duet gives depth to Molly's book and context to her harsh life which helps you feel instantly connected to her story despite her not even featuring as an on page characters in the duet.
I was so happy to hear we would get to learn more about Molly and I think this novella was a great way for her story to be shown. It was addictive and quick to read. The previous books meant we had an idea of what she'd been through and we could avoid reliving the more traumatic parts of Hunting Adeline. I loved Molly and the 'good for her vibes' of the story. Overall and easier read considering the dark topics covered, with a good amount of focus on Molly, her life and healing. Plus the added spice and sweetness of her relationship with Cage.

Like a 2.05
I think I have realized that these type of dark romance MMCs are not for me.
I liked Molly more than I liked Adeline.
Molly had a lot of grit to her and really tried hard to put down boundaries (even tho some men said no)
Her story and character growth was nice though! I think that’s why I even gave it just over a 2.
I really resonated a lot with Molly and how she sees herself, as broken and damaged and not worth loving.
This book has so many trigger warnings it’s a long ass grocery list. I suggest preparing yourself cause it gets uncomfortable.

Cage appeared back in her life too conveniently. I personally think she should’ve left Layla alone because that’s a lot of trauma. Also, is she going to stop the pig feeding stuff if Layla hangs out more?
And the whole jump to Zade at the end was a cheap, fast ending. It didn’t give me any closure or want to read the next book.
