Oh crap, I actually read several pages of it.

Dear hero lead male character of this book: She is a grown woman with a brain, an education, and a fairly sophisticated upbringing. It is not your place to "save her from herself" until and unless she asks you to. Take your high-handed arrogance and fuck right off.

Dear heroine lead female character of this book: You spend your life abnegating your needs, then finally grow the spine to have a life of your own. Hooray for you. But to now turn around and feel guilty for growing that spine is fuckwitted in the extreme.

Dear author of this book: Your apparent approval of these two idiots you've created is appalling. Please stop writing books.

No love,

Me

ETA: Have just realized that this is not the same author as wrote the book I was snarking about five years ago. That I couldn't tell the difference is not a point in either author's favor.

bad prose
