This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. To view it, click here. I want to give this less than one star. I can't, I couldn't read the whole thing. I ended up skipping around trying to find parts that were even decent enough to hold my attention. First let's say the writing- horrible it sounds like a 15 year old decided to write a book, I am not sure if this author has written anything else, but if she has and it's decent I am sorry for saying this. This book didn't flow..

The Main character Kia, is a woman who married her high school crush who turns out to be abusive, who is having an affair and took a life insurance (and a hit) out on his wife. His affair leads to him being murdered by the other woman's husband. Of course Kia just complained about him in the beginning, she made no comments that she had a feeling he was doing it. Basically Kia is what you would call a pushover. She has no back bone no thick skin she is weak and she grossed me out in the end.

Sam is a former major Football star, I believe it is mentioned that he played for the Colts at one point and I think I started skipping about Sam and his life when Kia told us she had overly googled him and described him in pathetic detail as being "half white, quarter black and quarter Hispanic". Ok that, right there that makes no sense.

They don't speak well either, I think Kia at one point said 'My husband got dead'. Huh?

She was weak like I said, at the end when Sam was taking off for whatever that was for (I skipped that too) she was telling him she loved him and when he just continued to say "good" she took it, after being with a man for 7 years who didn't love her, she was sitting back and taking that? No way would any normal woman put up with that, especially one fresh out of a shitty relationship. She didn't once tell him to screw off. Instead she wrote him a sad little note and left without saying a word..

Sam comes after her, pulls the jealous ghetto talk and they make up.. Of course they do...

The rest of this review isn't even worth my time, this book wasn't worth my time, I don't really ever give horrible reviews, if a book scores a 1 star I score it and let it go (I don't do that with many) this book however is being returned, and forgotten unless I am unable to forget just how bad it really was. ...more

5 Stars. Another amazing read from Kristen Ashley. Outstanding epilogue. Kristen always seems to come up with the most unlikely match of hero and heroine, each with their own engaging or extreme background, and brings them together through a beautifully written novel. Kristen made us work for this happily ever after. What I want to know is what about Hap & Lucy??!!
