This Book Left Me Depressed
Here's another book I'm way out in left field with compared to the other favorable reviews. I just don't get it. This book left me depressed, & in a way, feeling kind of betrayed by the H in this story & the author. I spent money & time on this book. You could say I was 'invested' in this book. And like ANY "romance" book I read, I'm expecting a HEA. Well...
** SPOILER **
I totally felt robbed of a HEA & the romance of this book due to the sick H's "ex-wife". I'm too exhausted to go into all the details of this book, but while the H ends up married to the h @ book's end, he still spends time with his ex-wife once a week - until either one of them dies. Quite frankly, it feels like the H is still emotionally intimate with his ex-wife. That robs the romance build-up between the H & h I spent the whole book reading about. And because the ex-wife is still in the H's life like this, it robbed me of a HEA feel-good-vibe. It's like the ex-wife can snap her fingers @ a moment's notice & the H will take off running to her. I want to know that the the h is it for the H & that she will ALWAYS come 1st - but I don't & can't feel like that as long as the H "allows" the ex in his life. At the end, I feel like this is a 3 persons relationship. That really bums me out!
