I was given this book as an ARC for review.  stephaniesbookreports.blogspot.comI was sorely disappointed in Dr. Ivan in this book.  It's one thing to be brokenhearted because your girlfriend didn't accept your marriage proposal and ran away from you, but to go whoring around town to try to get over her is another.  He did make the sex scenes interesting as he couldn't get Jaden out of his mind.  That should tell him something!I did like this series overall and Desserts is great!  I think Dr. Ivan had lots to work through himself before he could really see that Jaden is truly meant for him.  It is hard to put aside heartbreak and really see another person for who they are.  She made a mistake.  Granted Ivan didn't know she'd mistaken what happened with her and her coworker but he would never give her a chance to explain.Relationships are hard. If you love someone you owe it to them to listen to their side of the story.  I've been there...when the other shoe fell.  I didn't really want to listen to his excuses but I'm glad I heard his side of the story before anything was concretely decided on about our relationship.  I think Ivan should do the same with Jaden.  Hearts are fragile and you know a book is good when you can feel the tug on your heart the same as described for the characters.I hope Ivan and Jaden are able to work through their relationship issues and form a stronger bond based on truth and love.  I give Desserts 4.5 stars.
