This book blew me away! It involves cheating but the author treats the theme with so much delicacy. The process this couple went through is covered in such a humane manner, the anger, the sadness, the guilt and the betrayal. I found both to be such compelling characters, the betrayal was horrible but their love was so strong. I didn’t know if there could be a solution, but then I realized there were holes in their relation and they hadn’t worked on them. I loved the process the author took in their growth, I was fascinated by the character development and how both were seen in their own views with their strengths and weaknesses.
June and Drew McKenna have been married five years but have known each other since little kids. Drew was June’s older brother’s best friend, and she was the little sister who followed them everywhere. She’s always loved Drew, and he had his eye on her but he never dared touch her, she was too innocent and pure. Instead, he dated all the girls until her senior year in college. She was assaulted, he rushed to the hospital and proposed right there. So they went from friends to engaged, married one month later in Vegas, and rushed into the life of a professional NFL quarterback.
To the public they were the perfect couple until they were no more. I was so riveted that I could not put the book down. I loved how Drew kept working towards a solution, while June worked towards her growth. There was such a driving force that kept them tied together in spite of the betrayal. I loved the process with the counsellor, how she took them through their paces, loved Leighton and June’s family who stepped close to help, loved Noah who was so pivotal to June’s growth. This book is a total triumph in its trope and I cannot wait to read the next one!
