SPOILERS:  I can understand wanting to do different things with your sex life after being together for so long.  I have been happily married 23 years and am more then willing to try new things to spice things up.  However, once some things happen, the damage cannot be undone and frequently sex with other people whether it be as a group or one on one is one of those things.It was sad to me that Kelly, h, and Tom, H, who were happily married for 20 years, damaged it by doing threesome and foursomes.  I thought it was totally out of character that Tom would suggest group sex. Tom was possessive,  in love and attracted to Kelly and showed little interest in other women.  Also Tom was upset when Kelly doing it with Eric as she was when Tom was getting physical with another woman. More importantly cheating was one thing he would not tolerate in his marriage, it was a deal breaker. To me, it is not a far leap from having sex with another person, in the same house and with the consent of your spouse to having sex with the same person when you are not in the same house as your spouse, without his or her knowledge. It is not unexpected and there should be no surprise if it occurs.  Once that initial line is crossed the next one is much easier to do.Regarding Eric the one who participated in the group sex, while I found him distasteful from the beginning, I thought him going off the rails so quickly and attempting what he did, was out of character and unlikely that he was that way.Even though I did not agree with the characters' behavior and felt sad after reading the book, I gave the author 4 stars because other than having a few noticeable grammar mistakes, she did a good job.  The book kept my attention, was a good length and worth the money I paid for it.The book ends in a HFN with trouble on the horizon for Tom and Kelly.  Nothing at this point can make me feel better by reading the second book other than Tom and Kelly never sleeping with other people again, getting marriage counseling and showing me that they are still happily married 10 years from now.  It is very unlikely that will happen and therefore I will not be reading the second book.  However,  I am willing to try other books by the author because IMO she is a good writer.
