This book doesn't deserve a proper review but it made me angry enough to write something anyway.
The "Hero" is one of the most unlikeable despicable characters I have come across. The love was so completely unbelievable I never got past it. Even the sexual relationship came across more like hate sex then anything. There is literally nothing redeeming about his character. The only supposed redeeming traits he has are verbally listed by other people but never seen in the book.
The ending where the heroine decides she is being unreasonable was infuriating because she was the only reasonable character by that point. Some things aren't forgivable.
What I found was most unreasonable is that she didn't shoot him, strangle him, or poison him halfway through the book.
From the very first scene he is an ass. He mistreats the servants, he sexually assaults the heroine repeatedly, he wears her down until she finally agrees to a fake contract to protect herself. He attempts to trick her into being his long term mistress. He kidnaps her children and forces her to marry him to have any access to them. He is a lying manipulative bastard who I wanted to shoot where it hurts from about page 100 on.
I only finished because I kept hoping beyond hope she would give him back his own, but it never happens. 5 hours of my life I want back. I need to find some way to purge this book from my head now.
