![]() Okay, so the good news is the books leading man isn’t actually a pedophilic slime-bag – the bad news is, Phillips introduction of Dan Calebow is so grotesque that it colors his character for the rest of the book. It’s actually his ex-wife, Valerie, who he divorced last year but still engages in these sexual fantasies with while the two are between partners. And then it’s revealed that this girl isn’t actually 16, or a stranger to Dan. I continued to feel queasy as Dan proceeded to have sex with this sixteen-year-old girl, and Phillips details the encounter for three pages or so…. At this point I was feeling pretty much sick to my stomach. At this gas station is a 16-year-old girl wearing a short skirt and football jersey – she comes on pretty hard to the infamous Dan Calebow and he agrees to follow her home, since her parents are away. ![]() ![]() ![]() We first meet Dan on his way home from a black-tie event, as he stops in at a gas station. Phillips has written what is quite possibly the worst introduction of a romantic hero in the history of contemporary romance. ![]()
