His Pretty Little Burden by Nicci Harris

3.0

I feel bad giving this 3 stars, but I had a hard time reading this.

I thought the heroine Fawn was beautifully written, but she had so much trauma that wasn't effectively dealt with.

The power imbalance between her and Clay just read so wrong. Her calling him "Sir" vs. Clay felt so wrong too given her past.

There is nothing wrong with wishing to be taken care of, Fawn deserves that. But the "Sir" and dom aspects felt kind of abusive given her trauma. Especially b/c she would call him that outside of just in the bedroom.

I do like that she asked for what she wanted.

Clay should have led the divorce though but at least he agreed to it right away.
