cryptic, bewitching, gothic, dark academia, hot for teacher, spicy romance. nocticada adjacent, with a sprinkle of dark notes, since our professor plays the piano. i had fun with this one!
"Witch," he murmured to her reflection, the affection evident in his gaze and his tone. "Devil," she breathed, hoping he found the same in her gaze and voice.

”Books had become her refuge, especially books with men-humans, shapeshifters, or aliens-who fell in love hard and claimed their women, body and soul. Those were her favorite.�
i enjoyed the quotes from classics through out the book that matched the vibes of the chapter they correlated to. i loved the writing in general. for some reason, glitchreads is not letting me view my kindle highlights for this book so i cannot share them right now.

the book comes with a long playlist, these were my favorites: black magic woman - VCTRYS in the shadows - amy stroup scars - michael malarkey going under - evanescence devil’s playground - the rigs serious love - anya marina walkin� after midnight - ki:theory control - halsey every breath you take - chase holfelder bury a friend - billie eilish arcade - duncan laurence bring me to life - evanescence far from home (the raven) - sam tinnesz mad world - michael andrews & gary jules apocalypse - cigarettes after sex

“Everyone� turns out to be a motley mixture of twenty and thirty-somethings who live and work around Grimstone. Half seem to be related to each other in complex and confusing ways.
i saw the plot twist coming, but pockets of doubt are planted along with blatant hints. so it does keep you questioning what is really going on until the final action scene. the punishment scene was hot. but i’m still processing the hypnosis scene�
”You’re so scary and intimidating and capable…it makes me want to just…kneel down in front of you…It turns me on when you boss me around…It’s like, every man I’ve ever met, I want to punch him in the nose when he tells me what to do, but for you, I want to give you everything, especially the things that embarrass me most…because it feels so damn good just to be near you…�...more
