Review: Dark romance...not bad at all

Okay, it's a bit twisted I admit.  Romantic in an odd, violent, twisted way, the Hero and heroine's relationship develops through the story to a respect of boundaries.  There exists a difference between hurting someone and using pain for pleasure's sake.  The author gives a good example of that in this story.  I found it fascinating, horrifying, and uplifting.  I find it fascinating because I never thought of such things before.  Horrifying because I imagine the things violent victims of these crimes, trafficking and rape, leave a permanent mark on the soul, never erased.  The uplifting and kind of creepy part I discovered in the book:  the extent Slade went to in order to protect the ones he loved.  This book made me think about possible gray areas in morality.  I recommend you read it if you're curious about what I mean.  No spoilers here though.  Be aware though, violence and talk of rape are in this book along with violent and anal sex.  If you're sensitive to those issues and shady morals, this book will not be right for you.  Psychology students might appreciate this book.  I did.  The editing needs improvement too.  Otherwise, artistically I give this book five stars since I never read anything like it before.  Enjoy the reading my fellow bookworms!
