REVIEW:

I loved this read. Itโ€™s dark, vicious, and all with a bunch of trigger warnings.

FBI agent Lane Bauer is captured in a cell by the serial killer he was after. He didnโ€™t know it was him. They met at a bar and had an instant attraction. Lane ended up at Ryellโ€™s house, where they had a scorching night, with Ryell in charge, and Lane very satisfied.
Sadly, Lane ended up drugged and captured.

Heโ€™s fading away, alone, and locked in a basement. He sees Ryell at most once a day, sometimes not even once; thatโ€™s not enough. Not enough for his body and not for his mind.
Ryell is vicious, determined to let Lane pose for him so he can end him. Only, Laneโ€™s behavior intrigues Ryell. He canโ€™t just kill him.

Being dependent on yourself bubbles up so many feelings, so many issues, in Laneโ€™s case, โ€˜hurtโ€™ and ‘neglect’.
Itโ€™s so fascinating to watch how his mind works.
Lane knows heโ€™ll die at some point, and heโ€™s at peace with it. As long as Ryellโ€™s focus is on him, he wonโ€™t complain.

Halfway through this story, with Lane at his lowest, the dynamic changes. Iโ€™m not going to spoil what or how things changed, but man, did I like it!

I couldnโ€™t stop reading, it was captivating as f*ck. The hurt, the Stockholm Syndrome, all those wrecked feelings, I loved it all!
