Over all I really enjoyed this book and the story line was one that happens all the time . So If you want a good read with flawed characters and the road to redemption. This is the book for you . So check it out .
I never thought I’d find myself giving a five star review to a book that had a cheating spouse as a main character, but this book changed my mind. It was fascinating watching Cherish finally grow up and realize the damage her actions could do. Her husband, Glen, was so much more patient and forgiving than I ever could be. Overall this is a story of love, redemption and courage. The courage to finally admit who you are and what you need and the courage to trust again after a betrayal.
I love this series. This book takes place during the end of book 1 Losing Faith (which is one of my favorite books). I couldn’t stand Cherish in book 1 so I had a really hard time liking her in this book but she does redeem herself. The ups and downs Glen and Cherish go through were emotional and I cried in parts. I just wanted to slap Cherish and her mother. The struggles were real and the sex hot.
As with all of Robbie’s books I didn’t want to put it down. I really hated my job this week because I just wanted to finish this book. This is a must read series.
This was an emotional read that had me hooked. I was drawn into Cherish and Glen’s world. Them hitting rock bottom as a couple and their struggle to come back from that. To save their family. I did not want to put this book down and enjoyed it. Oh I wanted to slap Cherish on the back of her head for some really stupid moves on her part, however she redeemed herself by the end of the book. I loved the transformation of Glen from a laid back man to in control and putting his foot down.
