Some say morally irredeemable… I say I can change him.

Did I read this in one late night sesh? Absolutely yes.

Why am I into this? Saint is one of those stories that shouldn’t work on paper, but somehow, it completely pulls you in. Kole is everything I wanted him to be: dark, dangerous, and exactly what you expect from a morally irredeemable character in a stalker romance. There’s something undeniably magnetic about him—he’s twisted and ruthless, but there’s this strange pull that kept me reading.

I have to admit, I usually shy away from virginal FMCs (female main characters), as it’s a trope that doesn’t typically resonate with me. But Violet was different. She’s age-appropriate, fully aware of what she wants, and her decisions feel entirely her own. I appreciated that she wasn’t just some passive character—she had agency, and she made it clear that she knew exactly what she was getting into. This made her the perfect FMC for a story like this.

The dynamic between Violet and Kole is intense and, frankly, unsettling at times, but that’s exactly what makes it work. The author does a fantastic job creating a balance between discomfort and allure, making you question why you’re so invested in these morally gray characters. The tension between them is palpable, and the way the story unravels kept me on the edge of my seat.

Overall, Saint is dark, twisted, and completely addictive. It’s definitely not for everyone, but if you enjoy a stalker romance with a morally questionable MMC and a strong, self-aware FMC, this book will hit the spot. I thoroughly enjoyed it and will definitely be picking up more from this author.
