The Prize by Brenda Joyce
1.0
If it were possible to give negative stars, this book would've earned them in spades.
I bought this book...it's in a series I'm interested in reading...and so I tried. I tried to keep reading it. I even tried to stop taking it so seriously, in hopes that would ease the utter rage I felt turning page after page, but...no dice.
Even if the relationship between the hero and the heroine weren't outright abusive—and it is—I'd still have to contend with contrived plot devices and conveniently stupid characters mucking about for hundreds of pages, busy-busy-busy doing absolutely nothing.
This is an extraordinarily bad book. I refuse to waste any more time on it.
