Graphic violence...dubious consent...disturbing situations...yes, this book has all that and much more. It was pretty intense...started off very calmly and looked like just another story of a woman being set up to date someone of her family's choosing and then it gets into the kidnapping for exchange. I liked the basic idea and for the most part it lived up to the promise of a dark romance...but somewhere in the middle things got muddled and went from one kind of book to another. I can't really say too much without spoiling it for those who have not read it yet, but let's just say some of the actions of the H were questionable and did not make sense and once the H and h become more than kidnapper and hostage, things fall apart and become unbelievable.On the whole it was a fast paced, sexy and very violent story of self-abuse and self-hatred between many damaged individuals. Dark and edgy and stomach turning in parts.**** 4 **** "there is no HEA really here" stars
