A review by izziede
More Than Need You by Shayla Black

This was a mixed bag for me.
I liked that it was written from the so called Hero's POV.
I hadn't read book 1, the Hero in this book has some despicable behaviour in book 1, which is recapped about 1/3 of the way into the book and explained so it's not meant to be as bad as it appeared to be when it happened.
If you've not read book 1, like me you might be a bit confused when he refers to his actions towards the heroine in that book and those events lead to the reasons for the secret son and her being cut out of his life.
The Hero has a tragic childhood with parents who set a disgusting example and led to his lack of moral compass but this has been done so many times and feels at times that authors use it as an excuse to abuse a good woman.
The heroine is engaged when she reconnect with the Hero and they are intimate, though not sex, so to me she cheats.
She seems to draw a firm line on being determined not to cheat but I would my want my fiancee doing things with his/her ex just after I got engaged.
During the separation which has happened before this book, both are with other people. The Hero is a manwhore during this time.
They do have some honest conversations but for me the Hero's ego was too much.
It didn't make me feel like reading any more of the series.
