Though taboo with a stepsibling dark romance. I can’t take away from the fact this was a good story. Joe Arden really brought Malachi to life despite the character being mute. I’m not sure if this book would’ve gotten such a high rating if I didn’t listen to the audiobook. The two voice actors really put the emotion behind the words and you were able to feel the pain, conflict, desperation and love between Olivia and Malachi.
