Dom/sub relationships are fun, for sure, but this one took things a bit too far for me. The fact that she legally couldn’t tell her mate “no” in any capacity, couldn’t leave the house without permission, and really couldn’t have a single original thought… just killed the vibe. Obedience is something a dom earns in my mind, so seeing it just forced so aggressively… felt more non-con than I’d like. Not to mention the fl didn’t have much of a personality, really just a place holder for a female shaped hole.

At the end there is a reveal that the ml has a special power… and I was so odd. Felt very forced and unnatural, like pretty much everything in this book.
