Beneath the Canyons by Kyra Halland
1.0
The female main lead (Lainie) is supposedly around 19-20 and she assumes the male main lead (Silas) is around 30. They obviously fall in love on sight, have sex within days of knowing each other and are then married at the insistence of her father who won't let Silas take her away if they're not??? There's a massive power imbalance between the two since he's older and also just more experienced than her and it's pretty uncomfortable to read
Lainie is constantly threatened with rape, seriously every scene with the "bad guys" it is mentioned and it gets old and tired (not the mention gross) pretty quickly
Pacing was fast, especially at the end when everything actually starts happening and all the mysteries are solved (which all conveniently are tied to the main villain)
