Really disappointed

Commenté au Royaume-Uni le 17 juin 2022

I actually had my calendar marked for this book I was so excited to read it. But I feel very let down. It feels like Stunich didn't know what she wanted to write with this one. It's set in modern-day yet it feels like she's playing out some weird gothic fantasy with the dresses and the candlelight that just reads as bizarre.

Grey feels like a completely different character. The previous series, Death by daybreak, was filled with brilliant storytelling and characters that I became fully committed to. I thought Grey was an interesting choice to keep going with, but she's completely ruined him for me here. None of his actions make sense.

In fact, I didn't care for any of the characters, which really shocked me because one of the main reasons I am such a fan of Stunich is her ability to create people who feel real to me. Everyone here felt like a stereotype. We barely touched on anyone's history, I don't know why anyone thinks the way they do or again, acts the way they do. I couldn't tell you what anyone's motivations are here and there is barely a plot.

The dub con read more like non con. I kept reading, waiting for more emotion and intent to be introduced to these scenes but they were none and I found myself skimming them the more I read. The darkness doesn't bother me, but do it well.

I think I can vaguely see what she was trying to do, but she forgot to make us care. There's no sympathy to any of the characters. Grey could have been a wonderful opportunity, a dark soul/gentleman, someone who has to learn to trust again, fix a broken heart and find his equal. Instead, she seems to have turned him into some sort of childish, whining monster. The heroine Peyton is by far her weakest lead and I could not tell you a thing about her except that she reads fairytales. That's it.

Stunich writes some wonderful books that I will continue to reread and recommend. I will give the next book in this series a chance in the hope that this was just a misstep, but otherwise it's a no from me.

Thrilling!

Not going to lie, Grey’s character has totally changed from when we met him in the Death By Daybreak series. I can see other reviews about how his character is not the same one as in that series. Some even commented that because of the drastic change in his character, they were put off.

But isn’t that the point?

I mean, this man was betrayed by his family, forced to endure torture at the hands of rivals, forced to fall in love with someone who he could never have a life with, repeatedly told that he was the “throwaway prince” and had a very traumatic beginning to his life.

However, I’m not naive to think that this should excuse any of his outrageous transgressions now. And believe me they are heinous! BUT, I came into this story knowing it was going to be dark! Stunich is not one to write all sweetness and light.

And that’s why I love her!

This book is as depraved as it is sensual and half of my mind is fighting the sickening scenes I read, whilst the other half is loving being turned on. What a conundrum my emotional state has been.

The only downside is the cliffhanger. I didn’t realise (my stupidity) that it was a series and until around the 70% mark kept thinking it was a standalone. Gutted the next book isn’t out. But I’ll be keeping an eye out for the next instalment with bated breath!

Deliciously Dark!

𝐎𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐮𝐩𝐨𝐧 𝐚 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞, 𝐚 𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐯𝐢𝐫𝐠𝐢𝐧 𝐦𝐚𝐟𝐢𝐚 𝐃𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬.

What a deliciously dark story that captivates my dark heart. The opening to this book instantly pulls you into this world and Grey is a mystery for sure. 😍

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 …𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐥𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 …𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐛𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧 …

The story is unlike anything I've read, delicious and unbelievably dark with triggers. Grey is a misunderstood guy who morals are showcased as wrong but ultimately isn't understanding his true self.

I loved the suprise MM scenes and the confliction Peyton feels, she's innocent and feels what is happening is wrong but in the same breath she is salivating for more.

The story is unfolding and i will be diving straight into book 2!

Three stars

Stars given on level of engagement;

5 stars - less than a day to read because I cannot put it down. I only give 5 stars if it has managed to engage extra emotions from me - extreme lol moments or real teary moments etc. A 5 stars book tends to have me raging about cliff hangers and (legally and not creepily) stalking the author for release dates.

4 stars - 2 days to read or less. A book that I have quite enjoyed reading, feisty MC and some racy scenes with thier romantic interest. I would definitely follow a series and author for 4 star books.

3 stars - takes around 2/3 days to read, usually because I have become distracted and less engaged in some sections but by the end the end I have enjoyed the overall story and would read any sequels.

1/2 stars not given, as I have usually returned it without finishing as I'm not engaged. .

Hmmm, not sure about this one

I read this book thinking that it would be a continuation of Gidget & Grey's story but it felt completely removed from the original trilogy, and as other reviewers have commented, it didn't even feel like it was in this century. I didn't like Grey's character in this - too vague & seemingly shallow. I thought Peyton was a feeble dimwit. I mean, I know she had been "cloistered" (??) But come on, she's 23 & has siblings & her family has a lucrative business!! The other 2 male characters, I didn't care one way or the other about (sorry).
I will read the next one to see where it goes.
Ultimate favourite go-to reads: Alpha Wolves Motorcycle Club including Glacier's story & Rock Hard Beautiful series - Perfect ,👌 More like this 😁

Loved loved loved this book! Wasn’t what I was expecting …. It was so much more! Grey and his created family take you in a journey of mafia fun!

Loved the little pop ups from gidget and Reba from a previous series…. If you haven’t read The death by daybreak series…. I would as it makes a lot of sense (and it’s an epic series too!)

Cliffhanger ending…. Can’t wait for book 2!

First, it needs to be said, read the trigger warnings before reading this.

However, this story is just so refreshingly different to all of the other RHs I've read. I'm still not sure how exactly I feel about Grey, very much like Peyton herself, and at one point I thought he would be irredeemable. But alas he's starting to grow on me.

Bar Peyton, I feel like the characters are still a bit of a mystery in the best way. I'm excited to see how they develop throughout the series.

As always, brilliant writing by C M Stunich. Oh and please please PLEASE keep writing M/M within harems. I love to see it.

Honestly I never leave reviews, but I just have to show support for this series.
Yes, it’s a pretty dark book - but who says all books have to be sweetness and light? I appreciate how very different this book is from C.M’s other series. It’s honestly one of my favourite books of hers so far and I would hate to see the series changed too drastically down the line. I couldn’t put the book down, I chose no sleep and reading secretly at work over putting this book down. Absolutely loved it!
