Honestly while reading this I was in one of those moods that was like “speed up speed up”. I felt like there was a lot of extra details and information especially about the family that I just didn’t care to learn about. Also, the her making up memories thing, it kind of freaked me out. Is something like that possible? I’m not sure. I wasn’t the biggest fan. Also, it was all about sex for so many chapters. I feel like I would have enjoyed it to be spread out. There was just so much going on.

Steele knows her way around the heart. From the waltz of temptation to the two-step of heartache, The Unwanted Wife tangos it's way into your soul. Skylar and Nathan turn a conveniently, inconvenient marriage into an accidentally perfect second chance. Sweet and sultry never loses sight of the emotion that romance entails.

This was just…. Not good :-(

Literally was all over the place. Each chapter felt like I was getting waterboarded in a Russian prison while listening to cats hissing. Nothing makes sense and nothing was fun. What is this dudes obsession with her “forbidden hole”. This book felt like a fever dream. Bad.
