REVIEW: Asking for It by Lilah Pace

KaetrinB ReviewsContemporary / Dark / Rape / rape fantasy6 Comments

*all the trigger warnings*   This book features rape fantasy and themes of rape and abuse.  There is reference and depiction of sexual assault in the book but it is not perpetrated by the hero or the heroine. What happens between the hero and the heroine is all consensual.  (This was ... more >
