Double-edged by Nyla K.
5.0
Alright, let’s talk about Double-Edged by Nyla K. If you’re not into taboo romance, this book might not be for you—and that’s totally okay. No judgment here. But if you’re feeling adventurous and willing to step out of your comfort zone, buckle up, because this one is wild.
At its core, Double-Edged is an MMM romance about twins, Colson and Cyrus, and their stepdad, Tauren. Yes, you read that right. Twins. Stepdad. And, just to make things spicier, there’s a pretty hefty age gap in the mix. It’s bold, it’s intense, and it’s unapologetically taboo.
Cyrus is the quiet twin, a deeply introverted guy with a brilliant mind and crippling anxiety. He’s sweet and almost naïve in some ways, and watching him work through his emotions for both his twin and Tauren is heartbreaking, tender, and captivating. Then there’s Colson, the broody, broken bad boy. He’s rough around the edges, haunted by his own mental health struggles, and desperate for love and acceptance. His tough-guy exterior hides a deep vulnerability that will absolutely wreck you.
And finally, there’s Tauren, the stepdad. He’s wealthy, self-assured, and has spent years suppressing parts of himself—until the twins come into his life. With them, he finds a freedom he’s never known, and it’s fascinating to see how his relationships with each twin develop. He gives Cyrus and Colson something they’re missing, and in return, they give him the space to fully be himself.
What really solidified this as a 5⭐️ was how Nyla K crafted the relationships. This isn’t just about the spice (though, trust me, there’s a lot of it). The connections are complex, layered, and deeply emotional. The twins’ bond is unshakable—they’re fiercely protective of each other—but Tauren adds a whole new dimension to their lives. It’s not just physical; it’s about finding love, acceptance, and understanding in ways they’ve never experienced before.
That said, this book isn’t for the faint of heart. It leans heavily into its taboo themes, so if that’s a hard limit for you, it’s best to steer clear. But if you’re curious and open to exploring something unconventional, Double-Edged is worth every single page. It’s raw, emotional, and incredibly bold. Nyla K doesn’t shy away from vulnerability or complexity, and it pays off in a story that’s equal parts scorching and soul-deep.
So, if you’re ready for a book that’s as daring as it is emotional, give this one a shot. Just don’t say I didn’t warn you—it’s going to stick with you long after you finish.
