I struggled to finish this. I wanted to stop when Logan bonded the Aes  Sedai and Jordan wrote her pleasure with submitting to enslavement and assault.

The writer is at fault. He only writes relationships as ones where one dominates and the other resists/submits. No examples of dialogue with questions, where characters seek to learn from others. No examples of collaborative team work, willingness to learn from others and to trust others. It feels so monotonous with this lack of diversity in the authors writing of human interactions
