Buy Me, Sir by Jade West
4.0
To date, nothing I have read by Jade has disappointed me. However, I think that this particular novel was the first one that I simply did not accept the hero and heroines motives, character development, and actions/behaviors. That the heroine went to such lengths to get to the hero based solely on a five minute exchange in high-school was unbelievable. The OTT stalker behavior was completely out of line and explaining it as "because I love you" doesn't generate the sympathy and empathy needed to accept such behavior.
I know that this is a work of fiction, but Jade has been so good about delivering what initially seems like extreme fetish/deviant behavior and then peeling it away to see the very human and normal people behind the shock and awe. Unfortunately, nothing in this book allowed me to overlook the behavior and see the heroine as a "normal" relateable person.
Beyond that one bit, this was a great book! As always I purchase the books rather than just Kindle Unlimited since I know they will be re-reads and since I side load to get them on my Kindle to see the series number first, I want Jade to get paid.
Looking forward to the next ones....
