This book was fully non consent. This is not bdsm or CNC, in order to have either, you must have consent up front. This woman repeatedly told the hero no, attempted to leave him, ran away to another country to get away from him, and he chased her down. This isn’t even dark romance because he’s not a criminal or mafia member, he’s a marine, a sergeant. The first chapter is him spanking her without her consent and then raping her against a wall. This is Stockholm’s syndrome not romantic love.
Now the woman in this is not portrayed as strong or smart either, she is a helpless idiot and seems very broken to me. If you read dark romance or bdsm, the submissives are strong and want to submit to their dominant partner. This woman is forced to. When we are in her pov she is afraid and unwilling, it’s quite appalling and disturbing. If that fantasy is for you then proceed, but if you don’t like women depicted as spineless idiots and needing the control of men, don’t read this. I know some people like domestic discipline kink, I don’t personally, but be aware that this skates the edge of even that category.

I didn’t even really get far enough into this to really comment on the Islamophobia in this book. But it’s pretty disgusting and other reviewers have touched on it better.
This author is going on my avoid list. She’s pretty much promoting everything I dislike about the world in this one little smut book.
