"Not all girls like the hero. I was fated to fall in love with the villain." ๐
Dark, Insta love and zero consent... But still weirdly an enjoyable read. ๐ถ๏ธ was ๐ฅต but definitely a bit uncomfortable at points and I don't know if it was just because I was listening to it but it was getting to be a bit cringe the amount of times "tight little c**t" was used in an awkward uncomfortable way and I'm Scottish... We use that word all the time! ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ
I'm not sure where the line needs to be drawn between what is rape and what is dark romance and I know it's fictional, but I definitely feel like this could be really triggering for some folks.
Overall tho a decent read, 3/5 for me and I'm now onto the next one... ๐ค
