1.0

Reflects really offensive levels of sexism and misogyny. An easy read but I'll be checking this book out (luckily I bought it second hand for peanuts).  

The "normal" in this book includes coercive kissing and sex, bullying father, and heaps of sexism. At least the heroine saves herself from a kidnapper at the end of the book...
