You're looking for modern sensibilities around consent and equality in relationships.
You dislike stories where a character must sacrifice their body or autonomy to solve a problem.

About this book

A widow seeks help from a man she once rejected, only to find his assistance comes with demanding conditions. Six years earlier, Jessica declined Carlo Saracini's offer to become his mistress, choosing instead to marry another man for security. Now widowed and desperate, she must turn to Carlo when her father faces imprisonment. Carlo agrees to help, but on his own terms: he wants Jessica in his bed, under his control. Accepting his proposal means surrendering herself completely to him—and potentially revealing truths about her past while giving him the revenge he has long desired. Originally published in 1994.
