Content warning I'm about to literally spoil the whole book
she engineered the whole thing??? the PSYCHIATRIST literally stood behind one-way glass and picked celeste because she ~wanted~ her?? this isnt even dubcon it's just straight up sexual assault. a portrait of a child abuse survivor who lacks all context for healthy relations being groomed and deluded into yet another abusive relationship. can you imagine a story where a male protagonist did this to a female protagonist and it was sold as a romance. actually yes i can imagine it it would be the movie Passengers with jennifer lawrence and chris pratt. that's a bad movie.
