I got a lot out of this read, but there are so many problems I cannot deal with. A woman giving up her boundaries to have sex with a guy who is literally on his knees because he's horny. Romanticizing domestic violence. A few casual sexist comments. Characters' main personality trait is "troubled." I feel like I should give it another half star because I did connect with it emotionally. But I also want to take a star away for the issues it contains.
