Q. B. Tyler is and will always be my go to for insanely hot taboo romance. 

And this one certainly didn’t disappoint. Five chili peppers and five stars. 

The history between the mmc and his friends feels real and deep, genuine in a way many authors can’t quite evoke. 

I adore the relationship the fmc has with her family, but most especially with her protective big brother and cousin, who were the ones to support her in the darkest times of her life. 

The spice is absolutely top tier, but fair warning if you’re not into pegging. It only happens once and it is ✨Perfection✨, but I wouldn’t want anyone to stumble across it accidentally if it isn't to your taste. 

On that same note, this book does contain infidelity, though not between the mains. 

The angst is deliciously painful, the spice is ✨chef’s kiss✨ and the author does not shy away from the not-so-nice implications of the mcs’ taboo relationship. 

All in all, another fantastic read from an author who has yet to disappoint me.
