I think it is misleading to label this book a romance. This book would also require trigger warnings. If you are aware what you are getting into, it could be a good read but I fear the marketing gets people into the book with wrong expectations leading them to misunderstand and dislike the book. Overall I thought it was insightful and could be a really good story about abuse and how it changes the abused. It could help understand why victims act the way they do and how ones worldview can be corrupted by years of abuse. I have not read any other books of the series so I do not know how it progresses.
