This man had me blushing forreal
Graphic: Toxic relationship and Sexual content
Moderate: Emotional abuse, Violence, and Body shaming
Minor: Abandonment, Domestic abuse, Infidelity, Injury/Injury detail, and Misogyny
THESE ARE LIKE ALL SPOILERS SO CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED Sexual Content: P in V sex, Oral, Masturbation, Phone Sex; Choking, Light D/s undertones, Praise Kink, Little bit of degradation too (ie. “my good little whore” type of stuff) Toxic Relationship: Multiple frequent mentions of how her ex Richard treated her, multiple run ins with Richard; This is the main conflict/storyline other than the romance Body shaming & Emotional abuse: Some details about things Richard has said to her in the past & her habits/trauma responses to those things in her new relationship; Additionally, Damien’s client Sharon selves into her situation with her now ex-husband Domestic Abuse, Injury/Injury Detail, Emotional Abuse: Damien’s client Sharon and her situation with her ex are brought up and discussed in depth once, then referenced several times throughout the novel though not in depth again Infidelity: It is implied that Richard was cheating on Abbie with the paralegal; Sharon mentions that her ex cheated on her; Abbie’s best friend Cam dated a man during college who turned out to be married with children Misogyny: Richard says several things/has a general attitude that I would describe as fairly misogynistic Violence: Both Damien and Abbie punch Richard in the face near the end of the novel; Richard grabs Abbie’s wrist prior to the punching & Abbie mentions that his grip is tight enough to hurt a little bit; It is mentioned that Sharon’s ex attacked her and left her in the hospital for some timeariana_m's review against another edition
