Maree Rose has done an exceptional job at the character development in this book. Each character you grow to absolutely love in a very unique way for each person. They all have their flaws, dark pasts, special enigmas and secrets that, when they come to light, you'll gasp audibly and think to yourself... holy shit. I didn't see that coming.

The plot twists in this book had me reeling!! just when I thought I had everything figured out, I was thrown off course and proved to be utterly wrong! when I tell you, you will not see the ending coming... I absolutely mean it!! Well done Maree for having so many twists and executing them in a way that had me guessing from Start to finish!

The MMC'S were to die for. Broody, empowering, gentle when needed, and completely obsessed with our FMC. River is such a hidden sweetheart, my heart burst for his little shows of affection. Knox is a king who knows his worth and power. And both of them combined were a force not to be reckoned with.

I really appreciate the attention to the small details and the world building that takes place. I could also feel just how much of Maree's own soul was poured into this world.

I will also add that the very last chapter of the book after the epilogue, had me howling, IYKYK. You're an absolute gem for adding that bit in.

This is a pretty heavy trigger list read, so if you're not a dark romance reader or are just beginning your journey to the dark side, I suggest reading the trigger list!!

Rayne, a boudoir photographer, leads a carefully planned life with her furry sidekick, Luna. Her world is turned upside down when an MM couple, Knox and River, book one of her exclusive boudoir sessions. Little does Rayne know, this encounter will unravel everything she’s worked hard to maintain.

The characters, especially the MMCs (Knox and River), are deeply developed, each with unique flaws, secrets, and pasts that will leave you gasping at the shocking revelations. The twists in this story will keep you on your toes, and just when you think you have everything figured out, you'll be blindsided.

Knox and River are the epitome of the obsessive MMCs. One is a brooding sweetheart, and the other a confident, powerful force. Their dynamic with Rayne is electric, and their intense feelings for her will leave you breathless.

If you're into dark, spicy romance with twists that will leave you stunned, then this book is for you. The steam starts early, but the plot is just as gripping as the romance. I couldn't put it down, and I highly recommend it to fans of dark romance!

Rayne is a dark haired beauty but she tries to keep herself out of the focus and instead creates beautiful art by putting others in it. Working as a photographer who specialises in boudoir and intimate moments she spends her time happily working and living with her protective cat Luna. River and Knox are miscevious, alluring but also very dark and mysterious. They book in with Rayne to get an erotic photoshoot but when they arrive they seem far to comfortable in her space and after the sho ...more

Yet another masterpiece by the maestro!
Maree has wowed me yet again with this beautifully constructed MMF dark stalker romance with one of my ultimate book boyfriends - River. Hands off, he's mine.

"𝒀𝒐𝒖'𝒓𝒆 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒊𝒏 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒈𝒆 𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒚𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒆, 𝒔𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕."

I don't even know where to begin. The start had me hooked, the middle had me gagging for more and unable to put it down until I finished.

𝑺𝒉𝒆 𝒊𝒔 𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒔. 𝑨𝒏𝒅 𝒘𝒆 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒔.

Pose for me

Wow WOW WOW

could not put this down!

Love this storyline, hadn’t read a boudoir photography story before and it’s captivating.

Two delicious strong males to test our FM’s boundaries in all the good ways. Including DVP!

This is very spicy and beautifully written. The plot moves along quickly with some unexpected twists and turns.

Make no mistake this is a very dark book, so check your triggers, but hell this one is deliciously dark and twisted.

And an ending you won’t see coming!

Twists on Twists on Twists.
I can’t be the only one that is reading so much nowadays that it feels like within the first 2 chapters you know how its going to end right?
Maree Rose hits us hard with the twists and turns in this one, I thought for sure I had it figured out and then was pleasantly surprised by the plot twist, but then BAM another one, and another one!
Also if you’re ever worked as a photographer, this book will speak directly to your soul in parts - the subtle nods and causal menti ...more
