Run, Run Rabbit (Cambric Creek After Darkverse Book 1)

I love CM Nascosta, and up until this book I've loved every one of her characters. I just don't enjoy the romantic hero being an absolute ass to the heroine. He's a misogynistic bully boss who constantly cuts her down. And she crushes on him anyway. Why?! What's the attraction to a guy that emotionally abuses you? Most of Nascosta’s heroes are sweethearts so I'm surprised by this one. I kept hoping that he'd turn things around but the further in I read the less hope I had that he could even partially redeem himself after all of his f**k boy behavior, and he never did. In fact, his abusive behavior only gets worse. The heroine becomes less and less likable too but that still doesn't justify the hero’s abuse. I'm so disappointed. I'd been looking forward to this read for a while.
