DNF at 70%. 
 Pepper Winters is a talented writer. 
 But great writing cannot excuse doormat characters. 
 I'll paraphrase: 
 Arthur Killian: I'm selling you. Get the fuck away from me! *kicks her ribs* 
 Cleo/Sarah/Forgetful Girl (literally, she has amnesia): No! Please! I'm the girl from your past! 
 Arthur Killian: Stop lying! I've arranged a buyer. *strangles her* 
 Sarah: No! Keep me with you! 
 Then: 
 Arthur Killian to Mr Steel: Let's get this transaction over with. Quick. 
 Mr Steel: I wanna see her. 
 Arthur Killian: *yanks Sarah's dress down - she's wearing a bikini top* 
 Mr Steel: Nice. But the price is too high. 
 A little later still: 
 Sarah: *takes bikini top off, at Mr Steel's insistence, hating Arthur* 
 Mr Steel: You've tattooed your nipple! Must have a high pain threshold *chuckles evilly and sleazily* 
 Stage direction: Ray of light hits Sarah, and Arthur realizes Sarah really is the girl from his past. 
 Arthur Killian: Stop this transaction! I'm taking her back with me! 
 Sarah: *feels sooo happy, but then remembers he kicked her and was really planning to sell her to sexual slavery, but then feels sooooooo relieved he knows it's really her!* 
 Night (at this point): 
 Sarah: We need to talk (at this point, I'd be spraying mace in Arthur's face and stamping his crotch) 
 Arthur: Later *takes a swim, naked* 
 Stage Direction: Sarah goes to find him, also naked, except wearing his jacket. 
 Sarah: Let me take out your stitches 
 Sarah: *takes of jacket, so she can be naked too* 
 At this point they start to engage in foreplay (presumably leading to sex), but I just bailed. 
 I've had enough of this shit. Pity. Really good writing, and I enjoyed the first 40%, right up till the point he kicked her - and she didn't keep her anger. Or it came - and just as quickly - left. Just because she felt a"connection." At times, it was almost like she was justifying his behaviour! Urgh. Amnesia my backside.
