Any books where the protagonist is a rapist trying to redeem himself?
I don't know why but I consider murder to be a far less heinous crime than rape, stories about murderers being redeemed can be found all over the place, hell some murderers you actually might side with when they try and justify their act.
But rape is a different thing, the intent behind rape is always pleasure and dominance, while murder can have multiple reasons behind it.

It can. In a failing marriage, you guys are done and she doesn't want a thing to do with you anymore.

Hell, you can be estranged and still married. You don't live together anymore or anything, you show up at her place and force yourself on her. Rape

To be quite H with you, goodman, I can't remember. My dad read it to me when I was 6 and I only remember broad strokes. I think it was a weird contrast of fantasy tropes and their subversion by some edgy fedora-tipping. I could be misremembering, and maybe the story evolved throughout the books, even if I recalled rightly.

If you’re talking about the present protagonist he just fucks his wife while she’s eloping with that gay hippie, I guess technically it’s rape but she was being a bitch.
