This is not a romance, this is an abusive relationship.

He rapes her multiple times, however this is 'justified' through his other actions somehow, terrible that this is a book that young readers are seeing being advertised to them as romance on TikTok.

 
Also poorly written, would have been annoyed if I had physically bought this instead of borrowing it.
