Half Empty
by Catherine Bybee
I adore Catherine's books, but there is something extra special about her First Wives series. Of course, there's the strong female friendship that is a staple in Catherine's works. Then there's the hero and heroine who, while strong on their own, compliment each other perfectly. Where one is weak, the other is strong. Where one is lacking, the other steps up to fill the void. I always love how her characters are the perfect balance. The element that I'm enjoying the most is how deeply connected the books are in the series. Events that happened in the first book play a big role in Half Empty, which in turn plays a role in the next book. I love how each book is connected. It gives the story more depth and I find myself more invested in the series.
Trina and Wade were so wonderfully developed if felt as if I've known them for years. Still reeling from her husband's death, Trina's tired of people looking at her differently. So when Wade pops into her life with a spontaneous trip to a remote location, Trina throws caution to the wind and agrees. Wade doesn't quite know what to think of Trina. The fact that she has no idea of his celebrity status is foreign to Wade. One thing is for sure, he'll do anything to protect her. What starts off as a quick trip sparks a whirlwind romance in the midst of danger. They grow closer while trying to investigate the truth about her husband's death. All things point to foul play, but that doesn't mean things are as they seem.
Truth be told, I've been off and on with Catherine's books. When I first discovered her, I couldn't get enough. Then, as usual, I got behind. Now that I'm caught up on her most recent works, I find myself wanting to go back and read the books that I missed. As for Half Empty, I devoured it. Now the wait begins for Avery's book.
I received an advance copy. All opinions are my own.
