A completely fine marriage in trouble romance novella with some decent smut. I'm going to forget everything about this book within a week, though.

Good sex. Marriage review and confirmation. Sorting thru babies and lost dreams and loving each other.

I love how this is a rekindling of love story for an established couple. It's a lovely short read.

A nice sweet, short intro story. Sexy in all the best ways. Definitely going to check out more.

This was a somewhat interesting novella that introduces the Wardham series. I really liked the twist in this romance! Ian and Carrie are a bit of an older couple, and they hadn't fallen in love when they met. An oops! moment led to marriage for them, and when the oops! moment was no longer a factor, they chose to stay together and see about making a relationship work, rather than taking the easy way out and divorcing so that they could walk away. This is not that prevalent in romance novels and I really appreciated this quirk! I could easily identify with the characters and envision their world. In short, it was a very enjoyable read, and I look forward to reading the following books in the series!

Another audiobook to listen to while I was cross-stitching. Seems like it's a novella to introduce a new series and it's an interesting way to go about it with a marriage in trouble.

Este es el romance con los protagonistas más amables, confiables y emocionalmente maduros que he leído en mi vida. Se preguntaran entonces el por qué la baja calificación.

Imagínense esto: ante cualquier mínima dificultad Ian y Carrie se ven a los ojos, dicen "no quiero pelear por esto", confian el uno en el otro sin reservas y resuelven todo conversando. A la primera. Así de fácil. Nunca vemos sentimientos complejos. Lo que puede ser un sueño en la vida real pero resulta aburridisimo en un libro.

¿Cuál es la idea de escribir una historia si no hay conflicto? ¿Qué emoción tengo que sentir si todo está bien desde el comienzo?

Aparte de eso es super corto por lo que se lee rápido, la escritura no está mal, tiene unos personajes secundarios con relaciones complicadas que me hacen creer que los libros siguientes pueden ser más interesantes y los dos primeros libros (este que vendría a ser el 0.5 y el 1) están gratis en Amazon. Así que quizás luego lo intente con el próximo.
