For the rest of the series — An Offer From A Gentleman (Benedict, Book 3) has on page attempted SA by side characters, but IIRC it isn’t in any of the other books

If it’s dark romance? Yeah, pretty likely. Anything involving aliens or a billionaire boss also ups the likelihood.
For non-dark stuff, the older a book is the more like it is to have dubious consent. There was a gradual shift ~2005 where the conversation around consent became more similar to today’s understanding.
But if you’re reading recently published, non-dark romance? 2/5 containing on-page SA sounds like bad luck to me.

None of mine are people I know from real life. Quite a few are people from book-related subreddits. A few are people from Twitter. Most are people who my Goodreads friends interacted with and I liked their reviews.
