Ella Miles never fails to disappoint me when it comes to her books. I always think I'm going to get one story but I end up with another--one that never fails to entertain and surprise me. This one is no exception.

This is probably one of the darkest romances I've ever read. It's deliciously dark and twisted which means it isn't for the faint of heart. If you don't enjoy dark erotic romances, don't pick this up! But if you do, you are in for a treat!

This story did keep me on my toes. You always get the sense that there is more lurking underneath with all the characters involved and I loved the tension that brought to the story. I became a little obsessed (pun intended) trying to figure out what was happening and why. And the twists when everything is revealed (and how it ties back to the novella, [b:Dirty Beginning|36609450|Dirty Beginning|Ella Miles|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1510886917s/36609450.jpg|58365058]): awesome.

That being said, I do wish the "game" was allude to more than it was throughout the novel. Just some little hints along the way would have been great. Even though the game is always afoot, I felt like we got a little too wrapped up in the sex scenes at times and I wanted a little more insight into the "why" of it all.

I can't wait to see what happens next!
