      Lovely well written story. I can read and re-read this book over and over again.
    • 2/5
      There were some good moments, even cried alittle. However for the most part it was pretty bad. I hate when the heroines are weak pushovers and that describes Helen. Not to mention the hero was a sexist, lying chauvinist. Anyway, this book is a PASS
    • 5/5
      beautiful story with strong characters and lovely

      ending. good reading.
    • 3/5
      It was a good read. I just got irritated by the heroine’s tendency to trust everyone but her husband and judge him before giving him a chance to explain. I also found it irritating when the hero apologised for something he didn’t do whereas when he seemed to be practically ignoring all of the heroine’s no’s there was no sign of an apology anywhere.
    • 2/5
      She is pathetic letting him do it his way. He is chauvinistic
    • 3/5
      3.5 stars
    • 1/5
      i was enjoying this story umtil i got to the middle. The H bedded his mistress the night before his wedding because she stripped her cloth in front of him and ask him to make love to her for the last time which she blurted out in the open during a party withe heroine listening. what a turn off. why did the author inserted this idea to the otherwise good story... i had to stop reading.
