Bitter Sweet Heart by H. Hunting, Helena Hunting
3.0
My favorite part of this book is Maverick. He's the most redeeming part of this story. The premise is good I just had a few issues that hindered my enjoyment.
1) You can NOT stop a divorce by refusing to sign papers. I was married to a man just like this, who tried to do the same thing. It did not take two years to get a divorce. I was separated for the required 6 months, filed, and was divorced within a couple of months. I know this is just a book and it's for the drama, but it's wildly inaccurate. I hope anyone feeling trapped by a spouse knows they DO have an out and this nightmare situation is not possible. Legally. (I know mentally/safely leaving an abusive relationship is hard and can take time, but that fact doesn't apply to this story's plot.) I don't want anyone to read a book or watch a movie and feel like there's no way out.
2. By 50% not much had happened, honestly not much happened in the story at all. This book could've easily been cut in half and been more enjoyable.
3. Copious amounts of fade to black spicy scenes sprinkled with a few luke-warm "full spice" scenes.
4. I didn't care for the background characters. Mav's mom is a nutcase. She would've gotten a swirly in the bathroom if I was Clover.
