Mine to Hold by Shayla Black
2.0
Even though I really like Tyler Murphy when he was first introduced in my favorite book (out of entire Wicked Series), Delicious, and throughout this book as well, I just couldn't get into Delaney.
I really felt Delaney didn't deserve Tyler. Throughout entire story, all I saw was Delaney being insecure in every facet of her life and she couldn't stand up for herself even against her ex-husband. It was really pathetic.
What made it even worse was the scene (spoiler alert) where Eric handcuffed Tyler to the refrigerator and almost made him watch Eric have sex with Delaney. It pretty much screamed rape scene to me and all Delaney did was look at Tyler and "silently communicate to him." Really? I couldn't even read that scene without cringing.
I'm surprised this book has a 4.3 rating considering the poor female character development. I just hope the next book has a much better female character then the one that was written here.
