The novel has also been met with positive reviews, with many readers feeling an emotional connection to the characters and the story. What I was trying to say earlier, that non-consensual sex or intercourse where a woman is humiliated and lowered to the status of a sex slave, which seems to be a trend in the porn industry, is not something I would appreciate about the person who enjoys watching or reading about it.

The characters also have relationships with other people in their lives, such as family members, friends, and colleagues, which further strengthens their bond. i honestly had no sympathy for any of the four horsemen here and at one point i thought, im glad their entitled asses went to jail.

While young Rika frustrated me, I loved seeing her grow that backbone and truly come into her own throughout the book. I can't promise all of my readers will follow me down this rabbit hole, but I definitely love what I'm writing. I’ve heard about the book the same way you did, I really love haters to lovers trophy but this book was a big NO for me. It’s like a being onboard a runaway train at breakneck speed with nothing to stop you and the destination equals devastation.Turning my hands palm up, I locked my knees together as I sat on the stone bench and stared down at the blood, darker where it had gathered in the creases of my skin. Finally, the book concludes with a discussion of the future of corruption and the potential for reform.
