THE GERMAN’S OBSESSION

This was a story of pure abuse, if we're honest. Yeah, The German (I refuse to acknowledge his name) may have been a little bit romantic, but it didn't last long. I think it's clear here that there is a difference between love and obsession.

Look, I love a messed-up mc but The German took things to a whole other level. He was so cruel. There was nothing redeemable about him. He deserved nothing but death, and I wished for it the entire time. This is a very uncomfortable read, but the story was good enough that I didn't want to stop reading. All I wanted for Halie was to escape.

And then the end happened and the messed-up part of me, attracted to fictional troubled men I would call 999 on in a heartbeat in real life, was sad The German died, and I read on hopeful that he might have survived, which of course he did, but let's be real: he may be trying to change, but it's apparent that will never happen. If he had any piece of humanity in him, he would have left Haile and their daughter alone. Now, I judge myself and wish him dead again.

As I type this review, Amazon just delivered a copy of His Dark Mercy, the first book written by Amethyst Moonn which is twice as long. I guess I have signed myself up for more delightful punishments.
