Forgiveness by Skyler Mason

Only show reviews with written explanations

I'm not particularly sure what Mason wanted the reader to feel about this. Am I supposed to be happy? Am I supposed to be overjoyed at the fact that the FMC is a doormat that takes back a man that cheated on her for 15 YEARS??

I thought I would read this just for the angst but even the angst was not enough for me to like this atrocity. The way I was so MAD that i had to turn on the fan to cool me down. My hands were TREMBLING from the rage.

For the previous book I had made a prediction in my review and it turned out to be partially right. My prediction had a lot more angst in it but this book was absolutely pathetic.

Mark, our wonderful cheater, feels so sorry for cheating on the FMC for 15 years. Poor him, looking so sickly now that his wife is actually leaving him. I feel so bad that he's finally getting what he deserves and getting what he dished out for years. He's totally the victim in all of this and the FMC should definitely take pity on this pathetic man and take him back. Is this what I was supposed to think???

Mark should have lived a miserable life watching Whitney live a happy life with Stephen (who just decides to never be mentioned again when Whitney decides to take Mark back?? Like what happened to him??).

Whitney isn't innocent in this either since she was the one who cheated on Mark first but this doesn't excuse the abuse she took from Mark for 15 YEARS. I'd get it if it was like 1 year, 2 years, hell even 3 years but 15??? God this made me so angry.

The best solution would have been divorce but ofc we can't do that.

Who in their right mind would genuinely think this is a great relationship? It's toxic, manipulative and revolting quite honestly. Makes me sick to my stomach, I literally would not wish this type of relationship on my worst enemy.

0 stars.

Loved this conclusion to Faithless! Marks suffering was delicious, Skylar writes emotion so well I could feel Whitney’s pain at trying to move on because of a timeline she set for herself. Rather than because she was ready, I loved that she found herself again and let herself enjoy life.

I loved the turmoil of enjoying his karma play out combined with her want to keep him from pain. I loved both books, they had a grip on me for days after each read.

This is a part 2! Please, please, please read book 1.

I'll just get right to it. This book won't be for everyone. Cheating is a hard line for a lot of readers. But yall, I love pain, regret, drama... This one was chock full of it. I really wanted some groveling, crying, turned hearts.

Whitney is thriving. She's healing, and I am there for it. Mark... whew. We all know Mark has some problems. But now it's more apparent. But how does one change after all these years?

I won't spoil the end but I was happy how it turned out.

Still toxic and in deep need of therapy. Kind of weird how obsessed he is and how she just takes it but hey if you are happy.

it's okay. It's very fast paced. Wouldn't recommend buying. It's written like a decent Wattpad novel. Want to read something like thing like this? I bet you can find something similar for FREE on Wattpad. Exact same review from the first book. Should've made this one book not two. Again not much closure at the end. nothing nada. what happened to the kids? did they stay married officially or did they get divorced? Had they announced that they were no longer separated? Like no closure or details from this book.
