The Fire Rose by Mercedes Lackey

Here goes: I quite enjoyed Rose and the world building. Jason, well he's supposed to be Beastly and is that way because he isn't the best of people. That's fine. I expected to not like him and be won over as Rose was.

SPOILERS...

Then there's Paul, employed by Jason, who is the bad guy. And by bad guy I mean he gets his kicks from raping and torturing young girls.

The sticking point for me: Jason, the freaking 'hero', knows about it. And has done nothing because well men have little quirks and it's not like he's picking women of good fortune.

Done and done.
