I really, really liked reading this book, I also hated it, & loved it. I also know I'm going to get slammed for the title of my review, but I finished this book a week ago & the main character I keep thinking of is Cathy.Let me explain. I had a hard time getting through some of the subject matter with Cathy's experience of "not feeling like a real woman" but mostly I liked how Mia Asher expressed how Cathy wanted Ben to fall apart with her so she could see he felt the same loss she felt & not for him to be the strong Mr Fix-it as most men want(need)to be...even Arsen tried to fix all her problems at some stage. Most of the reviewers may have misunderstood that as selfishness, but I think the book captured that emotion with such honesty. I totally disagree she was "bored" in her marriage...Escaping "Perfect Ben" makes so much sense to someone who truly understands the all-consuming desire to be a mother. The cheating storyline & hot hot sex scenes with a sexy 24yr old, on the other hand, made for a great fiction novel so thanks to the author for that bit of yummo!Don't get me wrong, I'll always be Team Ben for his undeniable perfection & love for Cathy. I think if she didn't meet Arsen & follow the wrong path, she wouldn't have found her way back to where she was truly meant to be.I also can't believe this is the Author's 1st novel...I can't wait to read more from her. An Arsen book would be delicious!
