eilidh 's review for:

The Billionaire and the Virgin by Jessica Clare

3.0

---

so pretty much everything about this book was great and on par with the billionaire boys club books. the writing, the heroine, the conflict, the tension, the steaminess. so why am i giving this book 3 stars? because the hero was a raging fraternal misogynist who made billions (emphasis on the b) on exploiting women and their bodies and im just supposed to forgive him because he fell in love? yeah fuck him. rob was just a slimy douche and even the way he thought about marjorie and her virginity was so gross and i just didn't vibe. i really like marjorie because she was tall (even taller than the hero which i rarely see in books) and she was sweet if a little naive but overall rob's "redemption" was not deserved because to me, that level of misogyny just doesn't disappear because you fell in love and donated some money. maybe i'm being a cold-hearted bitch but i don't care, this wasn't it
