Haunting Adeline - HIGH Spice

 

Grab a sweat rag and a buckle up. We have a lot to dish out here. 

I do want to preface with a few warnings here. I want to respect trauma readers may have so here a a few subjects this book deals with: 

-non-consensual sexual acts 

-rape

-sex trafficking

-child sex trafficking

-child sexual abuse 

-gun play

-sexual aggression 

-grooming

With that out there, let's get started dishing out this gem of a book. This book was a bit much, even for me which is saying a lot. But it was none the less an intresting and exposing read. This recap is going to be a little unusual as everything I have to say isn't positive. I feel that Z was a little too obsessed and had no ounce of self control. Though, I am not complaining about that when it comes to the bedroom scenes. Z does some really good work in this book, but I love a man who practices a little more restraint and gentleman like manners, but that is just my smutty preference. Controversially to that, I feel that she developed a touch of Stockholm Syndrome which develops the plot and their relationship through the book. So in a way, I'm not complaining since it enhances the situation. 

But on the brighter side of things, this book opened a whole lotta doors for me. So, thank you, H.D. Carlton. This book is very unhinged and different so it keeps you turning the pages and on the edge of your sanity with various characters. 

SPOILER: 

Can we talk about the gun scene? I have never come across something like that in all the smut I read and I was SHOOK. But I really want to hear thoughts and opinions on this book. I feel like the smut took over the depth of this book. 

Happy Reading!
