And don't get me started on when either he or she keeps screwing around while supposedly loving "the one". And the obsessive stalking. I had a boyfriend once and later a husband like that, in a galaxy long long ago. I almost didn't make it out alive. Its not romance.
What was the one were the heroine actually slept with one guy and then without taking a shower went at it with the other. It was absolutely disgusting. Was that Thoughtless? I can't recall for sure now. The characters were hideous and I found no redeeming qualities.
Its like reading the Jerry Springer show rather than an emotional romance.

I've also been an abusive relationship in my teens and I agree it's not romance. I wound up locking myself up in my house for seven months to get away from the psycho.
No not Thoughtless. Kiera is too clean for that! That one had angst but the characters grew up and... well that's one of my favorite series. I wish there was more along that lines. I still need to read Whethering The Storm the other ones that was similar to that series.
