A review by absterlee
Man of My Dreams by Johanna Lindsey

Did not finish book. Stopped at 57%.

I wanted to like this so badly I overlooked everything until I couldn’t anymore. 1. Nobody would shut up about how beautiful they both were. Fine. I can get past that. 2. The MMC was actually the most infuriating, sexist, condescending, abusive POS I’ve ever had the misfortune of trying to root for. He actually does the most appalling shit and takes absolutely no accountability for it. He treats the FMC like a literal child at each and every turn. 3. The FMC IS essentially a spoiled child so maybe him treating her like one makes sense? Even so she’s also one of my least favorite characters ever. And the inner arguments? Hard pass. 4. This is the straw that broke the camels back. Their first sex scene. It was rapey and disgusting. I genuinely could not believe what I was reading. Wtf.
