The only reason Toxic Relationship is not in the Graphic category is because the author did not intentionally write this to be seen as anything other than a jealous, over-protective man who gets all of his red flags explained away with
'HE WAS POSSESSED' but not even that, he was only possessed for one chapter (7/292 pages) at the very end of the book
. The rest of the book in which he was short with the main character and mad at her and refusing to communicate (leaving town and refusing to pick up her calls - also texts and emails exist???) that was not an issue. 
If you must remind your readers at every turn that yes he does in fact love her because she knows he loves her with no actual evidence of his love, then perhaps he is not a good love interest.
Also I did not want to hear about her drizzling chocolate sauce on him as often as I did.
Terrible read would not recommend.
