The Bloody Tulip
I'd survived in the shadowy depths of a world I didn’t belong in, held captive by lies, but I never imagined myself tangled in such a hellish nightmare.
As a hopeful stripper with dreams of a modeling career, my life took a treacherous turn when I was chosen to represent my club in this so-called opportunity of a lifetime.
Competing to win the heart of a heartless millionaire, and to be the last woman standing from Club Tulip.
I thought I knew who I was…
Naive. Just. Empathetic.
Caesar Callahan was turning me into someone I didn’t recognize, and I was going to return the favor.
The enigmatic puppeteer controlled our every move, but it wasn't his hand on the strings that terrified me the most.
It was the viewers—the merciless judges of our fate—who pushed me to the brink of my own darkness, testing the limits of my moral compass by making me do the unthinkable.
I only wanted my big break… but it was me who would end up broken in the end.
The grim reality of this life-or-death dating show became all too real once I realized it was an invitation I wouldn’t just die for…but kill for.
Despite a few dark romance themes, The Bloody Tulip is a dark horror novel that does not end in a happily ever after. Please view the list of triggers found on the author's website.

Here's an actual review.
I enjoyed all of Sullivan's previous work up until this book. The reason for the low rating is because the story drags on and on and on. We are forced to sit through every single game knowing that someone isn't gonna make it, because the author makes it obvious by giving us dual POVs. This is why I hate dual POVs so much. They're hard to do well. When you have a book promising high stakes and life/death, dual POV is essentially a dead giveaway that there's no real risk to the MC. Not to mention, the reason Caesar was doing any of this makes no real sense. Ultimately, I'm disappointed she's chosen to pursue a series with this storyline because I'm really not a fan.

Bloody Brilliant and 100% Ruthless
Words can't even express the level of chaos this competition was. Ceasar is a wild sarcastic man who made me chuckle too many times to count. He gives zero cares for anyone involved. You will have favorites and you will LOATH some contestants. The challenges and elimination rounds had me picking my jaw off the floor at times. The author did a wonderful job at taking the Bachelor and making is a sick and twisted game. I'm looking forward to seeing the progress of the show as the series continues.

First off, if I never read the word “ literally” it would be literally too soon. The word appeared at least every page. Did a Kardashian ghost write this?
I wanted to like it, I really did. The plot was original, so that kept me hanging on my my fingernails to finish it. Cesar is diabolical, but no Silas. I’d like to see a stinger heroine in Tori’s next book, one that doesn’t cream in her panties when the H seeet talk her after he orchestrated her rape

I freaking love Tori Sullivan.
I am and will be forever in love with Silas and now Caesar is a similar (but still no Silas 😂) unapologetic guy. This should be book 1/4 but nobody knows when the others will be released.
