The utter lack of consent in this book is appalling. Anthony Bridgerton is an entitled angry and stubborn man. He does not take no for an answer even during sex. If Kate says no then you cannot push and wheedle until you get a yes. He also can't see what's right in front of him until Kate nearly dies. (this utter asshole can't actually or legitametly make his wife feel appreciated). If you want to truly enjoy the duo that is Kate and Anthony, then watch the TV show.
