Half-Blown Rose by Leesa Cross-Smith
3.0
I really, really loved This Close to Okay despite some mixed reviews from friends. I should have absolutely done a bit more reading about what this book was about before I started it though because the infidelity storyline (even if it is grey as in this book) does not typically work for me and something about it just rankled me at times EVEN AT THE SAME TIME as I was loving the writing and the prose and the chemistry with the new partner.
Overall, I would say I really appreciated some of this writing, and found the story well-told at times, but the ending of this book absolutely did not work for me and it did not satisfy me as a reader - from reviews I can tell I am not alone in that feeling but it was still a bit of a bummer.
Thank you to Libro.FM for the advanced listening copy of this book. I will still continue to check out this author but this book just didn't work for me as well as I had hoped it might.
