Wow! I wasn’t sure how I would feel about this book given some of the themes/ trigger warnings but I ended up hooked! And for a book that you pick up for the spice i actually got so invested in the plot! I’m not a degradation girly so I didn’t know if I’d like it, and while there definitely were some moments that were simply not my cup of tea I did really enjoy this book overall. 

Note: PLEASE read the content and trigger warnings. There are some very heavy things covered in this book. Emphasis on the dubious consent and CSA references, both were pretty intense. 

This book was a wild ride 
We’ve got:
•billionaire
•sex club
•sister who has zero boundaries 😂
•selling her v card
•amnesia
•kidnapped and kept in a sex dungeon
•KINKYYYY shit
•big time degradation 
•objects in orafaces that don’t belong there 😂
• dark dark dark pasts

There are also a lot of intense mental health topics covered that I think stasia handled quite well.
