I finished this book last night, and man did it put me through the ringer. I woke up thinking about it and am itching to reread the ending. I feel like I have to reanalyze it again and again.Where to start with this review. . . the story, well written. Great writing. And bravo on her ability to take us through the whirl wind of emotions. The characters...Ben. I love Ben, so much. He is perfect. So perfect, that whatever Cathy did in the story truly pissed me the heck off. I despised her. I am not trying to be unsympathetic to her issues, but the way she we handled it was so wrong on so many levels. She basically turned to a guy that gave her the same advice as her husband. Ben didn't deserve it. She should have just left him and carried on with her affair.Arsen, you know, I can't blame him. Yes, he shouldn't have pursued a married woman, but Cathy shouldn't have taken the bait either. It's sad, when a man cheats, it's so much more socially acceptable than a woman cheating. But it is what it is. So I really blame Cathy for most of this - it all falls on her.The ending, crazy! I don't know what to think or feel. At first I thought, oh, it's a HEA. But it ended up being one and I was glad. In the end, I am glad that they ended up as a family. I am glad Ben was happy, he deserved to be. Not saying Cathy didn't either, but I consider her lucky with how the story unfolded.
