A review by xakyr
Hard Way by Katie Porter

2.0

Normally, I really enjoy the books in this series, but this one was different and I really didn't enjoy it that much. Each one has explored a different form of erotic foreplay, or kink, and this one was no exception, but this one's eroticism was both unpleasant and uncomfortable for me to read about. It focused on rape fetishes, and as a former marital rape victim, it really hit some wounds for me. The other plot element, the impending divorce of Sunny and Liam/Dash, really spoke to me and saved the book from a one star rating. It was interesting to see how they worked to save their marriage, and their mistakes along the way. I was able to easily connect to them in that capacity, but the second things started heading for forced sex in the bedroom, I was in Skimsville, because I really didn't want to read about that. Normally, I re-read the books in a series when I restart it, but this is one book I may just skip over in my re-reads of this series. If I wasn't so OCD in having to have every book in a series if I like it, I would probably delete it from my Kindle Library.
