I received this book as an ARC read and really enjoyed it. It took me a little longer than normal to get through this book because I am currently recovering from Bronchitis and my frustrations with Malcolm. If you like a stepbrother bully romance with a bully who is really not that bad, (dark romances may be altering my brain chemistry!) this book is for you. This story follows Kaye and her stepbrother, Xavier. He is obsessed with her, and she is fighting an attraction to him. That she feels goes against her better judgement. I also randomly found that there are two prequels in this series that I now must read!

SPOILERS BELOW!!!!!!

I loved this book and only have the complaint of Malcolm’s whole being. I was done with him the moment he showed his true colors. He reveals himself to be the exact type of man who is a complete pet peeve for me. He grated on every last nerve I had, and I am officially requesting monetary compensation from Cora for having to endure him! In seriousness, I was waiting with bated breath for him to get his comeuppance. I really liked where the story ended and would be more than glad to read more in this universe.
