I can't write this review without spoilers so you are warned from this point forward there will be spoilers so if you haven't read this book yet you should probably skip this review. Reading the synopsis of this book makes you think you are going to be reading a single parent book but that's not the case. Both parents are alive and well they are just going to be going through a divorce. The first half of this book basically goes through Russ and Vivian's lives from when they met up to them getting a divorce. You get glimpses into the past when they first got together and them now. I absolutely hated Vivian. She was an emotionally abusive/manipulative wife and I couldn't stand her. I swear I could only read so much every time I picked this book up because she always made me want to throw my book across the room. That's why it took me over 2 months to finish this book. Russ was a guy who didn't like conflict so he did everything to make Vivian happy including letting her walk all over him which again made me want to throw the book. I want he to grow a pair and put her in her place. The last half of the book while still following along with the divorce it switches gears a little bit because Russ is now having to deal with his sister having Cancer and all that entails. This book put me through the ringer with my emotions. It went from anger in the beginning to crying my eyes out in the end. At first I was thinking I wasn't liking the book because of how much I was hating Vivian but the more I thought about it the more I realized if he's eliciting that much emotion out of me that's a good thing to me that's how someone should react. In the end Sparks has done it again for me and created another amazing book.
