The author introduces me to a rather straight forward heroine, then she meets the guy and she's stuttering and cowers before him. Haaaah.

Slut shaming on a college campus? This doesn't even make sense to me. It's like completely opposite my experience lol. It's sooo high school from the 80-90s movie cliche.

The lady doth protest too much. Also, extremely unprofessional.

Our heroine, the broken clock of denial continues. It's all so tiresome.

How did I miss the first time around that Curran <spoiler>would break into Kate's house and watch her while she slept?</spoiler>

Hahaha holy jeebus, this dude is unhinged. He drugged her, microchipped her and took a video of her unconscious so he could use it for "material" at night. Wow.

Honestly, so far it reads like a wattpad fic, with all the connotations.

You know that person in horror movies that refuses to believe anything that is happening? Oh, it's just the wind. Everyone is just playing a prank on me. I'm being gangstalked, it's not funny anymore, guys- Yes, that is our heroine. Not a fan of this trope. I thought we left it behind in the early 2000's.

At chapter 2: God, was the heroine always so insufferable?

I rage quit.

I can't believe I had to put this story down so many times and I'm only 4% in. That's like getting angry at an excerpt!

I'm a couple of pages in and it's already annoying me. The leads are completely unprofessional. This GIRL is 26? She acts like a 14 year girl who loses her mind at the first guy she meets. Then the male lead sexually harasses her when they first meet on a BUSINESS meeting and they both act as if it's no big deal. And am I reading this right? He's 21? That's crap writing if I can't tell if he's being sarcastic.

I think I like the bad guy a little too much. I kept hoping he wasn't the bad guy just so he'd end up with the girl, but yeah, he's definitely a morally-reprehensible bad guy. I wish there were more bad guys (or heroes) like him.
