Does it bang? Yes

Read this based on the recommendation from Fated Mates.  I did enjoy the friction and banter between the two main characters, but there were some things I found a bit hard to overlook. I tried to keep in mind that this was written in 1997.

The whole sabotaging-the-condom plot was hard for me to look past. I know she didn’t get pregnant on that occasion, but still. It’s so awful. And I know Cal says shouting is his “style of communication” but he uses such violent language that really turned me off - “I’m going to kill you”, “I should slap you”, etc. I guess we’re supposed to know he wouldn’t actually do those things, but that sets a bad precedent. The fact that he says them seems like a huge red flag that women should not ignore. However there were some hilarious moments too - the Lucky Charms, locking him out, the naked on the staircase scene.
