Rhett Sullivan.
Mysterious
boy painted in shades of red.
Nova
Markov
Eccentric girl dripping in sunshine.
Eccentric girl dripping in sunshine.
He
was the type mother’s warned their little girls about—a cocky, rich asshole
with a pretty smile, unapologetically insane and wild.
I
was the type guys like him usually ignored—a free spirit who hid my crazy
beneath an odd good girl facade, and the art hanging on my studio walls.
We
were opposites in every way but one, and we collided like two runaway trains
that never had a chance of stopping.
What
blossomed between us, our ‘relationship’, was
maniacal.
We
got stuck in a cycle of madness.
Rhett
Sullivan became a bittersweet poison I couldn’t get enough of.
In
the end, that’s what destroyed me.
Because
in the end?
Our love was nothing but a lie.
Our love was nothing but a lie.
**I
said I was done slapping warning labels on my book babies this year, but since
I have never written full on NA yet, I’m going to give a tiny one now. This
will be the only label this duet will have. If you are not a fan of twisted
stories that deal with dark themes, rich assholes, and lots of filthy sex, this
will not appeal to you. This couple is not unicorns and rainbows and neither is
their story.
Before you read my review, I will direct you to the mini warning from the author above. There are definitely trigger warnings that are needed for this book. For the most part, I liked the story. Both Nova and Rhett have major secrets. Unfortunately, the book ends on a cliff hanger, so I will have to wait for the answers in the sequel. It's hard to say that I "enjoyed" the story since it's very dark and made me uncomfortable at times. However, I am hooked enough to want to keep going to see what they are hiding and if they get a HEA. With the exception of one sex scene (which has no consent), they are very dirty and freaking hot. If you like dark and twisted romances, give this one a try.
