I'm all for a tense book and all but the abuse happening in this one was legendary...(spoilers) enough to push the main character toward a suicide attempt. I have never read a book that stressed me out this much.
Spoilers: An actual quote from the book sums up everything nicely :
They've poisoned me and beaten me down with words and lies.
Oh, and can someone tell me what part of this was spicy? I thought I signed up for a romance novel and ended up with depression instead.
