Dysfunctional empires were made to fall. I am Caesar. Broken and conflicted. I am a man who gives false goodness to those who crave it. I provide solace to the ones who beg to be saved, giving them the goodbyes they want. But, my quiet little world is about to be shattered by the whispers from heaven and hell. I am Mateo. Unlovable and unworthy. I am the boy everyone runs from. I keep love close to me in little jars of perfection, reminding me of a thousand goodbyes I never had to say, because I left them before they could leave me. I am Svetlana. Dirty and Used. Birthed into brutality while still trying to comprehend my version of normal. I am an injured lamb, eaten by filthy wolves day after day. Just as salvation seems like it's within reach, a goodbye from this awful world is all that I wish for. **Graphic content warning including detailed depiction of brutal, bloody acts. Physical and emotional abuse is also apparent throughout this book with graphic sex scenes, both consensual and non-sensual. Reader discretion is highly advised.

Excerpt
After many years of trial and error and a wake of useless dead bodies, we know the best way to get them exactly where we need them to be. If you buy an organ on the red market it is not going to be a healthy, fit person who gave it up. It’s an urchin that has been used and abused by themselves and others. You never know what you are going to get and I really don't care. I save your life, but sometimes it’s not what it seems. 
 
I let the girl lie next to me for the night. I know she doesn’t sleep much because she has to choose to suffer and live or to die and never hurt again. I have no problem sleeping at night as I am not conflicted, confused or troubled. I am who I am and I own it. I am able to sleep for six hours despite her constant tossing beside me, and when her shuddering from the cold wakes me in the early hours of the morning, I instinctively pull her into me. Her bony body stills next to mine, waiting for the horrors that should follow. They won’t come from me; the horrors that I have are silent, quiet and unseen. She won’t feel her death, but she can feel me taking her body in ways that she isn’t used to. There is little point to sex if you don’t both enjoy it, so I don’t understand the need to beat or hurt a girl to get off. I like them to feel good, because if they feel good I feel even better. She relaxes into me as I take her from behind, my slow rhythm making her breaths hot and needy, like the way she arches into me as we both get the release we were seeking. I don’t need sex for the connection; I need it to set the demons of my mind free, as it quiets my voices. The incessant din inside my mind where I hear the voices of a thousand goodbyes and the screams of those who I couldn’t save from the demons of Hunts Point. Sound is the one thing that can hurt me; I need quiet, and I crave silence. I have tried earplugs. I soundproofed my home, but somehow the voices always get inside. Soft, sweet, beautiful voices are the devil in my mind that drives me to do bad things.

 MY REVIEW
5*WINK* READ

Ditto to the advice of reading the warning and taking it seriously! Although reading some books by one of the authors I knew this could get VERY DARK so my mind went to anything and everything and it wasn't too far off. Thrown into a story of so much pain and twisted pleasure we are introduced to the most fucked up trio I have read to date; Caesar, Matteo and Svetlana.

Svetlana is so broken I don't even know where to begin. I can not help but feel that she will never ever recover and her mind will always be lost to an alternate reality that she calls her life. Matteo, a lost soul who just wants love. That's all he wants and needs, but how he gets it is beyond disturbing but you will find that you cant help but get turned on. Lets take it a step farther to Caesar. A man of many words but known for one; "Goodbye". So complex is he you will be charmed and entangled into his desires. Even one that is so forbidden by most standards.

FORGET WHAT YOU THINK YOU KNOW ABOUT YOURSELF!

You will question your reactions, you will question your anticipation. you will question your own desire to how this book unfolds. Finding yourself squirming with need, panting with lust, yet your stomach will be in knots and seconds away from being ill.

Every turn of the page will have you on the edge of your seat as you fall in love with some of the most misunderstood characters there is to date!
