Great book about a woman questioning her relationship with her husband and her happiness in love. Main character has an affair while visiting her mother’s grave on an island, and decides to try and have another every year. Seeing this as trying to control her life, she starts to question how much control she actually has and if her decisions are just a reflection on her becoming her husband as she realises that she is a woman in a man’s world.

Meh, the sex was short and the drama in the relationship was painful.

Smut, pure lovely smut. Cute story too, not very emotional or dramatic. Pretty honest relationship with lots of communication which is awesome! No drama, good read

It was nice, but frustrating with the holding back for the sake of each other. Just bloody talk!!! 
I think the talk about male expectations and pressure about sick is interesting but falls a bit flat

Cute, easy to read in a day kind of book. 
Hot as well, just a steamy romance book. Love a grumpy  x sunshine book
The way Brendan says Baby and the cutesy talk was a bit out of character, pulled me out of the story

This series is crazy! I hated the whole book, was bored the entire time with too many characters and a lot of talking about nothing. Nothing happened and it was so slow.
Then suddenly, I’m hooked! The last battle was amazing and I was listening with anticipation. How???? How can this be the third book where I’ve been tricked into liking it? In that I want to read the rest of them, even though it’s the same structure the whole time?? Crazy magic writing!

Enjoyed this one, it was cute and I liked the characters. They weren't rude to each other for long and then the ending had me tearing up. Classic Dream Harbour Fluff
