Once I started reading this book, I was immediately pulled in. Whatever it Takes is a beautifully written story about Gavin and Emma, a married couple. Emma is happy in her life and sees nothing wrong with the way things are going.That all changes when Gavin decides he wants to be honest with her about a huge mistake he made while out of town for work. A mistake that will change his marriage to Emma forever.Ms. Maretta tackles a subject that is sensitive and hits close to home for a lot of people. Infidelity affects a lot of relationships and some couples do not make it through such a tough period in their relationship. In this book, she details Emma and Gavin's journey through forgiveness, acceptance, redemption, and love conquering all.In her story, she describes the feelings of both leads so well. Since the book is written from both Gavin and Emma's POV, it was refreshing to get both of their feelings. I wanted to cry when Emma was sad and soothe her when she was anxious. I wanted to slap Gavin across the face when he told Emma what he did and hug him as well when he was upset and lost.This is a must read. It isn't the typical romance novel, which is why I loved it so much. It is a story that is true and real. So many readers can relate. So, grab your ereader and purchase this amazing and well written book. Make sure you have a box of Kleenex handy, you may need it.
