Review: didn't hate the heroine
Rating: 4 out of 5

I thought this was an excellent book and I really understood Cathy, I got why she did what she did, infertility is devastating, I've seen it rip apart my friends and sometimes their relationships as well. And I know everyone loves Ben, he is AH-mazing, but sometimes that's annoying you know? Perfect people can be so irritating and draining in their constant perfection when you feel anything but (and Cathy was borderline suicidal). So where was Mr Perfect? The fact that she was beyond obvious in her cheating was a huge cry for help and he didn't go after her? Three weeks he sat by and suspected while she fell in deeper? What he did in the car before the party was supposed to bring her back?? I loved the ending, so perfect for this pretty on the outside, not so pretty on the inside book. My biggest complaint is how unnecessarily explicit the book was. I love filthy language and filthier sex but there's a time and place and it's usually in a book that has not much else going for it. This was a great story and I would have loved some more intense dialogue in scenes I just ended up with sex to convey the feelings (ok, not complaining, i loved it, but usually i prefer a little less of a story line in my porn)
