THIS IS DARK AND THE TRIGGERS/TROPES ARE BIG ONES.
But.. as messed up as it was, I LOVED it. Teiren has a LOT of baggage and issues due to the way she was raised and I feel as though this book shows in-depth what "daddy issues" look like. Yes, this book is MESSED UP, but reading it with the understanding of what it is and what it's showing, I think she did a great job. Do I love how "Uncle Jake" takes advantage of her? ABSOLUTELY NOT. But I cannot argue that this wasn't a great book. It's twisted and that is what Dark Romance is supposed to be.
(I've marked this with an "Incest" trigger warning, TECHNICALLY it is not as they are not blood related, but some may feel as though it's all the same.)
