Disturbing Romance Imagery

[drcjsnider]

I recently read Sara Wood's Threat of Possession which was a pretty dismal read with its Alpha hero who is constantly saying stuff about how he is going to make the heroine want him sexually when he isn't trying to run her out of town.

However, the most yucky passage was when the heroine see the following sight - which gets her all turned on.

That is insanely disturbing. Not even what kind of writer is that - but what kind of editor and what kind of publish house would accept it?
