I liked it, but not the most memorable. It made me cry a few times because of one of the heroine's feeling like her husband didn't love her. I really need to sit down and write an actual review of this some time.

I am not sure Sam groveled enough for not telling his wife he loved her for 8 years but the book was sweet.

I gave it 3 stars because it was entertaining, but I was not a fan of the story. Why was everyone on board with Sam basically getting to crown his chosen love? And his choice is between two sisters? Ugh. I’m not sure how everyone moves on from that.
