I know rape was a big thing in romance novels in the 70s, but usually it was disguised as "forced seduction" so one could at least pretend the woman wanted it. Not here. Nope. The "hero" mistakes the heroine for a peasent and RAPES HER right out in the open in front of another person. It's only when he finds out she's nobility that he decides to treat her right. And she agrees to work with him? HECK NO! She should be trying to castrate him with a rusty knife like any real woman would. Not falling in love with the man who RAPED HER AND DEGRADED HER. I don't know what kind of delustional person would give this trash a five star review. Possibly someone who thinks it's okay when husbands beat and rape their wives or a rapist themselves. Because only someone who's completely delusional would like this trash.
