Untouchable
by Sam Mariano
I just knew that I was going to hate this just as much as other people have. Nobody is more surprised than me about actually enjoying this! I knew my moral compass was off-kilter, but I didn’t know it got legs and just walked away. I speed through this and would wonder what was about to happen when I wasn’t reading it.
To get it out the way, this book is problematic as fuck. We all know it, and If you’ve read reviews then you know that this starts off with sexual assault. Along with that, there is dub-con, manipulation, and so much more.
Carter Mahoney. This guy needs major help and I ended up loving him. He was so unapologetically him throughout this whole book. No need to make excuses for him because he doesn’t care if you understand or like him or not. The fact that he genuinely liked Zoey and pursued her after what he did, was astonishing. Like sir, you crazy! But maybe I am too because I was rooting for him the whole time.
Zoey was spunky and I can see how she would interest Carter. She fought him at every turn but also tried to understand why he was the way he was. Instead of writing him off as she should, she formed this weird relationship with him and got to know him.
I liked these two together! The banter between these two was hilarious but also flowed so easily. Their sex scenes were hot and very erotic. Carter likes to be in charge and feed off the fear of Zoey. She started to learn when to submit and when to fight him. The push and pull in those scenes were super spicy.
What made this 4 stars for me was how it started to drag after halfway through the book. I was still interested, but I started to get a bit frustrated by Zoey’s obsession with the future and making sure to push Carter either away or see things like she did. She would always bring up Ericka or the future and it got annoying. You love him, told him so, but still rather act like this. Girl stop!
All in all, I enjoyed this one. I’m still surprised but oh well. I will have to pick up something else from this author.
