I loved this book from start to finish. I hadn't read any of the other books in the "Scandal & Scoundrel" series before this one, but I am such as fan of Sarah Maclean's work that I just had to get this book ASAP. The main character's story in this book was partially covered in the other books from the series, but honestly you don't need to (although I highly recommend that you do). You would start off hating the main character's husband if you did though, just full warning you! By the end though, it really portrays the struggles of coming to terms with the infidelity in a marriage, and what is seemingly a marriage of convenience. I did not want this book to end! The sex scenes in this book were both really hot and steamy, and sweet and nurturing.
