His dumb rationale is that he only has sex with ppl he hates cuz he hates himself, but there are so many other ppl he could hook up with who aren't actively bullying HIS FATED MATE.

Overall: 4-stars
Safety Rating: Safe with Exceptions (view spoiler)[ • No cheating • Does have OW drama - Delaney, the Heroine's roommate from book 1, is basically stalking + 0bsessed with Knox and therefore causes major drama - We discover that the main reason Maddox is resisting the mating bond is that he doesn't feel he deserves one after he got his girlfriend killed (their enemies sought to get to Maddox by killing his girlfriend). What annoys me about this subplot is that there wasn't a single hint to it in Book 1, and the framing of the girlfriend changes throughout the series. The first mention of her, Maddox feels even more guilty cuz she was his first gf (he was ~18/19), and they both knew that the relationship was heading towards a breakup. But later in the series, she is reframed as his first Real Love ... which contradicts what he told the Heroine in Book 2. • Does have OM drama - Heroine's advisor/professor is a creep and sexually harasses the Heroine • Does have Easton AND Maddox pushing the Heroine away • No separation (hide spoiler)]

Safety Rating: Safe with Exceptions (view spoiler)[ • No cheating • Does have OW drama - Heroine's roommate is thirsting after one of the Heroes - and is aggressive in her pursuit. It takes a minute for the Hero to bluntly say he's not interested (which he never was). - Heroine is told to stay away from the basement section of the club Cillian owns by Easton, the guy who is determined to reject the Heroine as his mate. She defies him, and discovers the sex club. It's insinuated all the men (probably besides Cáel cuz he can't stand to be touched) were active members. The way Easton goes about rejecting her in the sex club causes the Heroine to lash out saying that he can sleep with whoever he wants in the club (which he doesn't do). • No OM drama • Does have (hide spoiler)]
