Who Would Like This Book:
Looking for a pitch-black, twisty ride? This book is pure catnip for dark romance fans who crave an unflinching story that blends psychological thriller elements with forbidden attraction. If the likes of 'Haunting Adeline,' 'Credence,' or Shantel Tessier's 'Lords' series kept you up all night, 'Take Me with You' will deliver that same adrenaline rush. What sets it apart: the masterful, immersive writing puts you inside the minds of deeply complex - and deeply damaged - characters, making for a wild emotional rollercoaster. Hardcore readers who aren't afraid to explore the darkest corners of obsession, trauma, and desire will find this book nearly impossible to put down.
Who May Not Like This Book:
Sensitive to triggers? This book is absolutely not for everyone, and even devotees of dark romance might feel pushed to their limits. Numerous readers found the content distressingly intense - think explicit violence, sexual assault, abduction, and psychological manipulation, with almost every conceivable trigger warning attached. Those who prefer redemption arcs or need at least a sliver of light in their dark reads may find the sheer intensity overwhelming. Anyone looking for consensual spice, traditional romance, or a lovable anti-hero will probably find this book's leads uncomfortably disturbing or just irredeemable. Some also felt it leaned too far into real-life true crime territory, which could be unsettling.
