He gave off a super fucking creepy vibe. 'Well she's a woman' and 'it's not sexual harassment if you're attracted to me' are very problematic.
Exactly! If I were her I would have said “Even if I’m attracted to you, doesn’t mean I want to be touched by you!” You can like a person’s face and still not be sexually attracted to them
I hate to say it, but I have seen a HELLUVA LOT worse in Harlequin. But for all intents and purposes, I agree. His "strictness" on how everyone "must be perfect" and how his comment on the sexual harassment being "fine" if she was interested in him too? Um... NO. BIG no. And am I the only one that thought he initially gave off a "Hey, I'm gonna knock a princess off my female conquests bingo card" type of vibe, for a while?
I get that he has a tragic backstory... but there was just something about him that made me feel like he was the worst asshole of all the Harlequin asshole MLs. I did not feel any sincerity from him. Rather it felt like he believed that he was entitled to everything, including getting Valentina back. Gah... it was just... annoying. Natalie’s story, while not perfect either, was much better than this debacle
