low 3 star. this one lost me... the first one was so much better.
i would classify this one more as suspense than romance. that said, none of the motivations of the characters made sense except maybe zade. i felt like plot elements and character involvements were added for shock value, but wasn't developed in a way to also make sense.
this was also a long ass book and it felt long. this was repetitive, and i don't think we needed over 250 pages of torture and graphic rape scenes to understand the trauma adeline was experiencing.
also sibel was so annoying pls. h.d. carlton is writing a book with sibel as the main character and i will NOT be reading that, thank you :)
