Crashing Upwards by S.C. Wynne
1.0
Again another book where consent seems a loose concept. Few times where one character clearly stated he didn't want anything to continue but the second continued to push.
It felt a bit like the start of an abusive relationship with the continuing forcefulness of the "hero". Let me pay for everything, let me buy the thing for you, let me be in control of finances. I was very much on Harper's side about the independence necessary in his life.
I would have run a mile from someone hitting me with their car then insisting they spend all their time living with me, sharing my bed, and taking care of me. On reflection it shouldn't have been Harper's behaviour the Senator should have been wary of, but his own son's.
