I feel like Sophie is a cheater and a user. She led Wyatt on, then chose Hugh. Didn't she admit she was happy at first?She then gets divorced because Hugh had changed, and doesn't let Wyatt know until she needs his help. If Lola wasn't kidnapped would she ever have called him. I doubt it since she was thinking of moving to Hawaii for a new job at the time. It seems like Wyatt had been thinking of her the whole time, made evident when his mom tried to fix him up at the beginning. Didn't buy this pairing at all.
Mod
You raise some excellent points. Wonder why Gerard chose to make her so shallow in this respect.
I got the impression that if Wyatt had proposed first, she might have said yes to him.
Mod
As you may probably tell, it bugged me seriously that she allowed Diego to flirt with her shamelessly in front of Wyatt and didn't at least let Wyatt know she wasn't interested. And, why the *?% didn't she let him know he'd offered to pay the ransom? He's there risking his life and his brothers and she holds back information. I was angry.
No way do her feelings run as deep for Wyatt as his do for her. Near the end of the story, when she's in the room with Diego, she lets Wyatt leave and doesn't contact him for ten days??? Yes, she was scared of his job but couldn't she just tell him that?
No, I'm not a Sophie fan. I'm happy for Wyatt because she's who he wanted but I think he'd have been better off with the fabulous Carrie Granger.
Actually, I kind of liked Carrie Granger better than Sophie.
Sophie certainly wasn't a favorite heroine for me. I forgot about her not mentioning Diego offering to pay the ransom until Jonetta mentioned it. It made no sense that she wouldn't say anything.
Mod
Me, too!
I hope she's up to making Wyatt happy; he deserves a HEA.
1. Should she have been more forthcoming about her feelings? Yes, she should have at least told him she had feelings for him, both before and in the present. He dropped everything to run to her and she owed him at least that much.
2. Did her reluctance to do so make sense?
A little. Hugh was in the same line of work and changed for the bad. I can understand her reluctance, but Wyatt's character deserved more consideration than she gave him.
3. Did she handle Hugh appropriately when he walked in on her and Wyatt? No. She acted ashamed and that broke Wyatt's heart.
4. Do her feelings run as deeply as his? No. Wyatt definitely loves deeper than Sophie. I just hope she deserves him.
5. Were you ever unclear about Wyatt's feelings? No. After he turned Carrie down, I knew he was a one and done guy, even if she chose another man.
Mod
I know that it just isn't done in RS, but I really wish Sophie would get terminal cancer and die. That way Cindy Gerard could write a book about him with a heroine who would love him unconditionally.
Mod
Too much? Yeah, you're right. As you can tell I was not a Sophie fan.
Lol, Yikes Anita. I'm thinking that her true colors will show and she'll hook up with some new guy after a few years and they will divorce, leaving Wyatt to find someone more worthy of him.

Just wanted to get it all out there. Feel free to expound on other elements of their relationship.
