Review: Be ready to be a sinner in Saraβs new opposites attract romance! Sage and Adam are two souls destined for each other and the storms they weather prove how well matched they are. I fell deep into their forbidden romance and lived to see how Adam would rebel next!
Sage is a young woman who works alongside her boyfriend when she first meets Adam and I enjoyed her unapologetic nature when she accepted to seat with him. I found myself silently laughing at how instant their connection was since she is an employee at a s*x club and Adam is the poster boy for good boys. Sara did a phenomenal job with creating Sage to be a total dichotomy and the way her character evolved in this story was perfect! When she is confronted with Adam and his father again, I was there for all her snark towards Adam and his patronizing ways.
Adam is the preacherβs son and the all-American good boy. His character is so righteous at the beginning that I was happy how Sage came in and knocked him down. The fake dating arrangement they both had also a disaster waiting to happen and I LOVED IT ALL! The main arc for Adam was him accepting Sageβs plan to fake date and anger his father. I enjoyed how Adam began questioning everything about his life and morals once he began to adore Sage. His growth was what made this book into a phenomenal read for me!
What starts out as fake quickly becomes real in this story at the two grow closer together. The insane amount of chemistry they share is intense and full of heat. I loved all the ways Sage broke down his walls and then rebuilt them with steel. Adam shocked me the. Most with how dominant he was for his character. The dirty talk and desire he could not control added so much to his βgood boyβ persona and Sage was there to meet him stroke for stroke! Their HEA was hard won and I cannot wait for the next Goode brother to fall!
Rating: 100+. An intensely dark and taboo romance!
