Coercion 👏 is 👏 not 👏 consent 👏
Horrific, a good bit into book two and still zero explanation of why he needed to not only kidnap, but also torture her. Zero explanation of their attraction to each other. She “saved his life” and that means he has to literally torture and starve her? I don’t get it. I love dark romance, but this just ain’t it. There’s no romance and I don’t see myself *ever* rooting for their relationship. Also, this weak woman vibe just ain’t it.

I finished book 1 and a little bit of book 2. This is marketed as a dark Beauty and the Beast retelling but it’s really just a kidnapper romance with extremely dubious (at best) consent. The FMC, Aria, has an internal monologue that reads like someone in an abusive relationship. The MMC, Carter, is so unlikeable to me that the only ending I would find satisfying at the point is if Aria kills him. Aria has almost no fight or strength to her, which would be fine if we weren’t being told how strong she is.

I will typically forgive a lot of things in a romance if the romance itself is good but this feels so forced and I do not buy their chemistry. There were actually some moments where I thought this could be an interesting thriller but not a romance.
