Where to begin... I'm going to try and write a detailed review without giving too much away! Just a heads up tho if you haven't read this I suggest you not read my review entirely due to some spoilers.I was so excited to read this due to a few reviews I had seen. I'm in a few of the same book groups as the author, so I really wanted to read this. I've always enjoyed Michelle's opinions on BBF and her thought on books. So, when I found out she wrote a book I was ecstatic!! I can't believe this was her first book. I personally could not put this down!Im beyond happy to say that this story did not disappoint. I'm not one for cheating spouses especially in my romance book world but the way Michelle wrote this story you can't help but feel you would make the same decision if you were in her shoes.The book starts with Ryleigh and Caleb during their last encounter before Caleb leaves for basic. I felt they were both cheated because they waited until then to recognize their feelings for one another. That broke my heart for the both of them.Fast forward 10 years, her and Caleb had kept in contact the first year he was gone but he didn't want her to feel like she had to wait on him so he slowly stopped all communication. So, Ryleigh has now been married for 6 years to what she thinks is an amazing husband when in fact Liam is a class A douche bag!! They go out to dinner for a mutual friends birthday and yep you guessed it BAM... Calebs back. He is beyond swoon worthy and a new favourite BBF of mine!(SPOILER ALERT)This story is the journey of a woman who is battling her head and heart. It's real and emotional and at times I wanted to shake her and make her see reason. She was just genuinely a good person and maybe that made her a little nieve to Liam's infidelity at times but you really feel bad for her. After a trip to Vegas, Ryleigh FINALLY sees how much of a tool her supposed amazing husband is.(MAJOR SPOILER)Fast forward three months I am so glad Ryleigh and Caleb got their HEA, I just wish there would have been an epilogue after the last chapter. I really hope Michelle writes another book. She a fabulous author, definitely someone I will be following in the future!!I would definitely recommend this book to other readers.
