Not fair. Mike got off too easy here with the rapist turning out to be pure evil psychopathic serial killer. His crisis of conscience lasted all of a few hours.

I'll be honest. You keep building toward this whole Jill is the true love of his life part of the story, but he's so quick to develop a harem of "empowered" (I seriously cannot stop laughing about the over-usage of that word - is that what men think a truly "empowered" woman is? One who loves to fuck without emotional attachment?) ladies whom he's "helped" in some way.

It's this predictable man's fantasy that he'll have unlimited wealth, a cock that grows to the woman's satisfaction, loads and loads of meaningless sex, and the ability to control what most people think.

I mean, you're giving Mike is cake and letting him eat it too. Yes, a good character is one who is flawed and womanizing and fucking his best friend's posse are definitely flaws, but his so-called redeeming traits of setting things right in women's heads and that whole stopping a rape are just too irritating to keep on reading. And I agree with the other commenter, that he got off too easily on the guilt thing.

I'm sorry, but your Mike is a Mary Sue. He's too "perfect" to be likeable.

This whole series is great! The writing is really, really good, and the sex stuff is very good too.
