Description
The Hale family is obsessed with status, power, and control. No problem is too big their money can’t solve.
Royce Hale manipulated me into giving him everything. My virginity. My hand in marriage. My heart.
And as soon as he got what he wanted, he callously sold me off for a cool ten million.
In the boardroom and the twisted game his family plays, he says the only rule is to win at all costs.
Yesterday I learned a painful lesson not to trust the prince of Cape Hill. Today I’ll destroy his carefully laid plans and show him just how badly he’s already lost.
All the money in the world won’t be able to stop me.
The Obsession is the second book of the Filthy Rich Americans trilogy and should be read following The Initiation.
Reviews
Rape and twisted
1By jusnikz8Border line rape. This book should have come with warnings. Had to skip pages to not have certain images painted in my head. Nothing about this was romantic sexy or erotic.Holding my breath…
5By kvoiceThis series has a great combination of passion, drama, sex, and family power! All combined to really have you holding on by a thread but pulling you right back for more!Trigger warnings and spoiler alerts
1By MkohkvhgThis book should have trigger warnings on it cause some of the scenes are just WAY too rapey, I was deeply uncomfortable reading some of the scenes and really wish I could get them out of my head, I skipped so many pages just to not paint the scenes. Also Marist is compared to Medusa A LOT but this book just paints Marist as weak and never standing up for herself like I know she’s made a deal and she owes the Hale man but it’s like she never learned the pattern with Macalister and kept letting herself be fooled over and over again. Truly disturbed and would not recommend.Creepy
2By thismanmustbestopped(Spoiler alerts) I could handle the boardroom scene in the first book - slightly twisted but mostly consensual. This book really crossed over the line. The father-in-law with the vibrator and the oral sex was just too rape-y and twisted to be erotic.Hardcore Critic

5By AarikakylaI have read the first two books in four days and I’m a full time mom of twins! I’ve had absolutely no sleep in the past week because of these amazing books that are too good to put down!Borderline rape and abusive scenes
1By shalan1982I mostly enjoyed reading the first book to this series as the writing was eloquent and storyline interesting, but in the second book it made me come to the conclusion that some scenes were borderline rape. When someone says ‘NO’ it’s NO. The author tried to make it erotic, however I started to skip large sections of this book because much of it was insane and I couldn’t stomach what was happening to the girl. I hope younger readers don’t find this romantic, the situations were very abusive and unacceptable.Wow
