In every relationship, there is a point where distance comes into play. Sometimes people just let life interfere, put the relationship on the back burner as they attend to day-to-day matters, or they are growing in different directions.  While these stories are easy to relate to for most readers, the solutions always are somehow tied to communication.In this short, Mason and Bridget are caught in the opposing forces of their love for each other, and their efforts to be successful and meet their goals at their jobs.  Mason remembers the struggles of his younger life, when there wasn't `enough', yet he is unable to find a stop point for that enough. Bridget is successful, but not as concerned with the monetary things she could have, only wanting the security and surety of the love from her husband.  On Valentine's Day, a series of missed communications and hurt feelings climax in a showdown: where the lines are drawn and Mason must choose between his  desire to `have enough' versus his desire for his love, Bridget.Emotionally raw and powerful, the resentments and insecurities are well defined, and the argument is one that feels oh so familiar when goals are drastically different.  This was a Valentine's day chock full of ups and downs, highs and lows - truly defining the love sucks, until it doesn't theme.I was provided an eBook ARC from the publisher for purpose of honest review as part of the Love Sucks Until it Doesn't blog tour. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.
