Why we recommend it
A secret society, a ritual, and an arrangement that was supposed to be temporary. Sloane writes the forced-proximity dynamic with real heat and genuine darkness — the ceremony is a beginning, not an end, and what the initiation leads to is considerably more complicated than the rules allowed for.
