Good start. There aren’t misunderstandings at the beginning and I am settled in to see how the mains cope with probably the same challenges that broke them up before, this time round.
I enjoyed the fact that most of the memories of the relationship, at least initially, were good. Also that the “I don’t know if I can trust you again" seems real and reactions are consistent with that.
40% in and I am not sure where the story is going. Yes there is a certain amount of tension to see if the main that ran away last time, will run away again, but if they don’t, I’m not sure what will fill the book other than descriptions of how wonderful life is now, which since we didn’t live through at the time the awful experience of the split, doesn’t have the same pay off!
So many intimate scenes means the writer is using a lot of different words to describe basically the same thing over and over with the result some of the word choices are possibly only made because they hadn’t been used yet, not because they are the right choice aesthetically for that type of scene.
I am forcing myself to read on because there is no tension and I am just reading about them being happy. To alleviate the feeling, I took a break for a few books, and it worked because going back to reading about them being happy was nice. However I kept thinking there would be drama or angst. There wasn’t. If you are looking for a happy escape with loads of intimate scenes and minimal, bordering on no drama, them this will be perfect for you! If you are looking for more, this will not be the right answer.
