Samantha and Leo were forced to get married. They had some problems in their marriage, but most came about because of Leo’s mother and his selfishness in having his family live w/ her. The day his mother passed away…no one was there! Samantha blames herself and Leo blames himself for a lot of things. These two drift apart and Leo moves out wanting a separation and possibly a divorce. He wants to make up for some things, but he doesn’t talk about this w/ Samantha and she is left reeling. The story opens up w/ Samantha trying one last ditch effort to win Leo back but instead she finds that he has moved on w/out her!
This story moved a little FAST! If things could have dropped down a degree or two and fleshed out more, I would have enjoyed it more. The framework was good, but I can’t honestly say I loved it. Leo had been caught w/ his former GF, Laura, and seemed to not like Samantha much. While this hurts Samantha a LOT nothing is EVER made of the fact that Leo intends to remain friends w/ this woman and apparently has maintained a friendship w/ her over the years! One would think that Samantha would have said more about that. However, Samantha also attempted to move on w/ her son’s soccer coach. Great guy, but in the end he was taken out of the equation. Leo will never have to worry about him again, but his BFF will continue to dwell in the same area and offer herself to Leo. As evidenced before, all it will take is a good night w/ some Rѐmy Martin and BFF will have all she desires! Also found the “my dear” phrase a little annoying, the fact that their oldest child couldn’t watch the younger one, and the reasons for some other things that took place in the story seemed a little out there….okay but…it was a way to pass some time.
