The Mister

I had to give up.

I cringed when the woman who is a victim of trafficking wakes in the night in nightmares of PTSD screaming - and the author's comment from the main character is that he'd like to make her scream too.

It is only briefly later where there is the line about how the victim is a virgin - to which the main character thinks to himself, “breaking in virgins is hard work but someone's got to do it.”

This isn't to give you insight to a twisted kidnapper or criminal - this is the character painted as the hero and dashing prince come to save her.

I completely understand trash “rich man saves poor woman from bad situation” novel tropes. I got this book since it was listed as a trashy romance novel - those two situations about 1/3 of the way through though just made me realize i was being disgusted - rather than intrigued - by the story.
