I love the pro sex work in this and I relate to Winnie in chapter 1.
So peter pans hot my god my brains going with thoughts
“We can do this the easy way or the hard way, Darling. Which will it be?”
We don’t fuck the Darlings because fucking Darlings is what got us into this mess. We don’t fuck the Darlings. We just break them.
Bash is my favorite  he's so cute
“We promise we won’t bite,” Kas says. “Not yet, anyway,” Bash adds.


Kas and bane while Winnie is eating pancakes is so funny

Kas being the bleeding heart of the group is so cute
“Bounce on my cock, Darling,”
Why the hell am I so aroused by this? Me when I read these books
“Fuck, Darling. Just like that.”

“Good girls wait their turn.”
“Filthy little Darling whore.”
“Do you want to know what I do to pretty little girls like you?”
“Are all of you allergic to shirts?
This was such a great retelling and I can't wait to read book 2

This book was beautifully written, heart breaking and had me wanting more (I need another book Amanda please) I want to see a disabled princess or prince a fairytale with a non good ending this book made me feel seen as a disabled person who dissociates  and can barley walk. This book is for those who never see themselves in books or people who don't relate to main charcters. Amanda I'll make you proud and give you a disabled fairytale where they don't become abled  and the people around them help them become the best versions of themselves. Thank you again Amanda  from one disabled person to another for writing this.

As much as I'd like to rate this higher I don't think it deserves it, there was many parts that were just so confusing you'd go from one story to another that didn't correalate with what you read. There was some Grammer mistakes too that just made it hard to read. The story was beautifully written however and I loved the DID represatation  as someone who suffers with it.  This book just needed more time and more plot in my opinion

This was the best spicy dark romance I've read I read this in public and could not keep myself  from blushing giggling and getting  a little  freaky this book is not for the normal romance readers you need to be a bit fucked in the head for this. The represatation  of trauma and healing from it was so good and the church aspects holy fuck. My favorite part was aeros character  development he had he went from not being able to accept love to loving briony so much.  Jescie Hall is my new favorite author thank you from one devils doll to another for writing this I'd rate this 6⭐️ if I could

“You’re the only glimpse of heaven I’ll ever see,” he murmurs, rocking into me. “The only redemption I’ll ever need.”
“I’d bleed out for you, Briony. I’d fucking kill anyone so you could live. I’d kill you if I needed to, just to follow you to your grave so you can know the depths to which I’d fall to show I couldn’t fucking survive without you.

"My little minx
" beloved stain

My sexy, disturbed little doll.
God is most certainly a woman scorned.

“I love you with every echoed beat of my dark and hollowed heart, the hole in which contains my shattered ghost of a soul. I love you with all the fractured tears inside my tortured mind. With every agonizing breath I breathe.”
“But it wasn’t pain that held me together. It was my ability to recall the feel of your gentle, comforting touch.”
“I was strengthening you all while you were unknowingly strengthening me.”
My little listless fuck doll.
“My gift to you is my body. I’m giving you complete ownership, handing myself over to you entirely. I trust you with everything that I am. My life is yours now, Aero. I live for you. Do as you desire with me, and please, don’t for a second even think about holding back.”
“Hush, my love,” she whispers seductively through her grin. “It’s time for us to erase your past.”

This had the perfect  amount of spice romance,  the ending was so cute  and I couldn't  put this down the relationship  between the two boys was so cute I loved every scence  every argument. This is the perfect Christmas romance and the quotes my god.
This book had me crying ready to throw my phone and kicking my feet and the two epilogues like I'm so happy right now I can't wait to read more. If I could give this 6 stars I would like my god I won't shut up about this
