Review: Poorly Constructed Excuse for Adultry

I absolutely, utterly, and completely did NOT like this book.  And the reason I did not like this book is that it contained the one aspect I do NOT read nor condone in romance novels: double-sided adultery. I like to believe that I am a very non-fire and brimstone kind of girl (you know circa Nathanial Hawthrone's time period), but I hate when the heroine or hero is the adulterer and we, as the reader, are expected to be "okay" with this situation and actually be sympathetic to this (it begins with an h and ends with oe).I feel that even though at the end there was a happily ever after it won't last because the hero can never trust the heroine. If she would cheat on her hubby, who is to say she won't cheat on her new man?I honestly won't even get into the plot since the plot has so many holes it might as well be swiss cheese (it never was explained why her husband wanted her back if he still had a piece on the side...he was a doctor so I don't see why he needed her if it was monetary reasons).The best part (besides when my iPad indicated that the book had ended) was the chemistry between the two main characters. It was EXPLOSIVE; however, the chemistry might have just been a product of the circumstances that the heroine and hero found themselves in. Sneaking around does make things hotter...or so I have been told ;).
