 I am going to jump right into this, Ms. Romig knows how to write a total mind f**ck!! Holy crap people! I really don't know where to start I knew going into this that it was seriously twisted but I guess you can never really prepare yourself. I sure as hell wasn't. 
 You know the alphaholes you love to hate that's not the case here I will be blunt I am not a fan of Anthony's he is sadistic, controlling beyond anything that I have ever seen and just down right evil. 
 Granted he did have his moments but I could never tell if they were real or fake. Claire Nichols, I had such mixed emotions about, she was a survivor and basically her submission was her only was to survive and then she fell in love with him. Just when I think she is broken she shows a side of herself that's just bent and holds on to the realization that things aren't always what they seem. However, with every rule that is broken there is a consequence and no matter how small the infraction may seem to the normal person Anthony is not a normal person and she pays dearly each time. 
 This is not a romance it's a freaking tragedy from hell. I didn't know what to believe from one minute to the next. I wanted to yell, sob, throw my kindle and walk away but it was like a train wreck, I couldn't do it. I was sucked in so deep! Then as I sat there stunned at the very end thinking "WTF just happened??" I am so glad to have the next book in this series to review because all I can say is DAMN!!!!!! 
 I guess I have to question my sanity as well, am I just as twisted because I too am hooked, Yes maybe I am, because I tell you what once you are there no matter how much I despise this man I want to see what the hell happens. No way can I see redemption in his future, damnation, Umm yep that I see. I will say this if Ms. Romig can pull off something that spectacular as giving Anthony Rawlings any kind of redemption she deserves the author of the year award in my book, but we will have to wait until book three for that. *sigh* 
 So be warned if you take the steps into this twisted world of manipulation and sadistic revenge the rules must be followed or the consequences can lead you straight into Hell.
