Blake: I used to be broken. I’d been that way for so long, that I could no longer recall a time when I was once whole. I learned to live that way; to survive. Dealing with trauma was my specialist skill. Three monsters. Four days. One bullet That’s what it took for all of those broken pieces, that I had fought so hard to hold together, to be obliterated; pulverized over and over until all that remained was dust. Now I give up. Now there is no more surviving. No more fighting. I am a hollow shell and there is no repairing the void left inside of me. Until them. Until their promises reawaken a flicker of hope within me; hope I had spent so many years hiding from; hope I was terrified of. Is it too good to be true? Can I really put my trust in them? They want to be there for me; to help me heal, but how can they when every part of me has been irreparably destroyed? This is a contemporary reverse harem, intended for readers aged 18yrs+ Trigger warning - this book addresses some dark subject matter, including sexual and physical abuse, kidnap, and violence.

Not sure how I felt about this book.
Blake has been through hell and she is so strong. I like the plot and how it’s going, definitely a slow burn with the guys which is understandable with Blake’s trauma.
I didn’t love or hate it but it felt like something was missing for me, a lot of it seemed repetitive.
I’ll most likely start the second book and just skim through to see what happens
My heart hurt so much for a Blake at the beginning of this story - she endures so much, but I loved seeing her regain hope and the way she deals with her physical and mental trauma felt so real. The guys are so awesome and I loved the bond she was forming with her brother and father too. The story does end on a cliffy, so I can’t wait for May to see what happens next!
