About this listen
From New York Times best-selling author Hannah Howell, a classic love story of a Scottish hero too wild to be tamed and the woman he's destined to set free....
Pleasance Dunstan is used to silently bearing the cruelties put upon her by her thoughtless family. But nothing can prepare her for the greatest indignity of all: being sold into servitude to a man as wild as Tearlach O'Duine. His untamed ways are whispered of throughout town, and he has set his sights on Pleasance to be more than his servant. He will have her in his bed.
Pleasance could escape this fate with a word, but her fierce pride keeps her silent. Instead, she follows her new master to the rough lands where he has made a home and finds a world beyond any she has ever known - a world of desire. For though he is her captor, only Tearlach can show her how freeing true passion can be...and while her servitude to him will one day end, nothing can stop the binding of their hearts....
Contains mature themes.
©1993 Hannah Howell (P)2021 Tantor& if they do, I really wish they'd research what rape really means & how it makes victims feel afterwards!
Rape is the ultimate loss of control, even very near rape... anyone who has been raped, usually finds it really hard for other people, even family, friends &/or spouses to touch them...
Absolutely no one, feels horny after a near rape... wives struggle to let their husbands touch them in even the most innocent of touches afterwards...
Yet, here we have a woman who was very nearly raped by FOUR men, feel absolutely no way about a man touching her intimately MINUTES after her near rape... WTAF?!?
Not only that, but she's so aroused by his touch not too long after she was so nearly & brutally raped...
Even worse, the man who saved her from nearly being raped makes jokes about having sex with her & she merely rolls her eyes & isn't repulsed... I ask again... WTAF?!?
Authors really should strive to speak to rape victims before they attempt to write about it or just leave the subject matter well enough alone!
near rape as a plot contrivance
