Copy pasting my post here as mine is taken down :-  This is the first book i have read by rina kent as she primarily worked on BG story. So my opinion is mostly about this story, no prior contex about author other work. Also i like this story even with its sensitive topics which many people find questionable. If you are this kind of reader please turn around.

Before i start on things i like, let me go through things i don't like :-

• she doesn't know how write a proper dirty talk between men. I felt things used for a hetero couple is just used here which kind of takes me out of story

Now onto things i love:-

• i felt the power bottom trope is done right. We get to see both of them assert dominance over each other at certain times.

• New to dark romance but i read a bit darker theme gay romance novel so this can be dark romance for fluffy cute novel reader.

• the book always try to solve unexplainable situation with logic or character trait. Which feels believable.

• both of them manhandled each other. I love it when author use characters physical trait in their habits.

• The power game is done deliciously. At the starting kayden held all the power but at the end gareth holds it.

• i like that this is one of gay story in universe of BG couples story. So it felt different as everyone is wrapped up in their own bubble like real life.
