ahem, anyway. 🙂
WHERE DO I EVEN BEGIN? i’m so fucking serious when i say: every SINGLE book hits harder than the last! there’s a pattern to the flow (unraveling) of the story, but there’s certain elements about each story that make them distinctly different according to the mcs.
i love seeing how much the Mulvaney family has grown, and seeing different sides to each character whenever i read their story? 🥰 it makes them REAL instead of whatever two-dimensional view of them i had prior to their story.
Zane is such a national treasure. maybe i’m biased because he’s a journalist and journalism is my major, BUT THE WORLD MAY NEVER KNOW 😼
but let me shut up so i can get started with Avi and Felix’s story 🫡ðŸ¤

Now onto the Headcase review
I'm going to be honest, I really struggled with this book. At one point I even considered stopping and skipping it entirely. I'm glad that I held out though because I ended up liking it more than I expected, but it was still a rough read for me. The plot is what saved this one for me. I didn't care for Asa at all. Zane was ok but not my favorite boyfriend. The spice, especially that first scene, my god it was a lot. I know a lot of readers will enjoy it but it is not my kind of thing. It was very predator/prey kind of kinky sex. The consensual non-consensual type of role play. It was a lot for me. There were some spicy scenes that were less of that and I liked those a bit more. With this type of rough role-play stuff happening, I really appreciated that the story was told from both men's POVs so I could see that it was more consensual than it seemed. That helped me through it.
Now to talk about the part that saved this book for me, the plot. Oh my god, that plot was dark and twisted but so damn intriguing! I was invested.
Overall this is definitely the darkest and most twisted book in the series, so far, with the plot and the spice. So be prepared for that.
content warning: very rough sexual content (consensual/nonconsensual roleplay), murder, torture, suicide, grief, emotional abuse, panic attack, and much more so be sure to look up the triggers for anything I may have missed
