How much is your soul worth, Candy?
A question I asked myself repeatedly as I read this book. Nathan's slightly warmer to her and she forgets that he whored her out and treated her like garbage. She even rationalizes how bad he treats her including how she could understand why women stay with cheating men. I never judged her for stripping to earn a living (a girl's gotta eat}. I never judged her for accepting Nathan's offer {her situation was desperate}. But I judge the hell out of her for not standing up for and lowering herself. It was like Nathan's good looking, rich and had magic wand, so she'd willing swallow his shit. I see enough women embarrass themselves like that in real life. No thanks. It's not sexy, it's repulsive. I felt bad for Drew but I ultimately think Candy deserves the life she ended up with. The limo scene made Nathan irredeemable in my eyes and I felt myself recoiling with each sex scene.
The author's writing was top notch as usual, but the characters were not likeable and pissed me off a ton. Though I love the writing, it will be a while before I read another book from this author.
