This was fun. Like if you need a book to get you out of a reading slump, pick this book up. There was a couple of things that stood out to me. 1) there was so many big words that I have no idea what their definitions were. I read this on kindle and thank god because I had to click on a bunch of those words to get the definition. 2) there were scenes that just needed to be fleshed out. Especially the sex scenes. I was like is he facing her or behind her???? 3) I didn’t love the mystery part of the book. I felt like it focused on their marriage and her being there for a year rather than the extra things. 4) this EASILY could have been a standalone. I am not against the second book couple but I could have just had this been a standalone.
