On the other hand, she got exactly what she wanted, so great for her, I guess.

I just DON'T understand why you would plan a proposal this way.

The kid is in counseling, honestly I think that's great. Two, how about you just fucking explain to the kid about the Navy and what a Navy job involves? It's not that fucking hard. I feel like you two have done a shitty job of this. These people are actually both horrible. Just look at what happens on this page.

I don't understand. Wasn't he on a mission in SOMALIA? How did he drop everything and come home?

I also don't believe that she didn't check with Dom's mom about the sleepover. Unbelievable.

Okay, it's annoying that I have to suffer through this kid POV but is Altom seriously telling me he goes into his baby sister's room and changes her diaper? He's just-turned-seven.

I don't like this part, either.

OKAY, then she's just like all, "Since we fucked that means you're not leaving. Let's do x, y and z tomorrow!" and he's like, "Hold up, I'm still leaving." And she's all pissed off. But of course he is still leaving. Not sure what she was thinking. Have sex with him to 'make' him stay? What kind of harebrained idea is this? She couldn't possibly think that would work?

They go from fighting to fucking in 0.2 seconds. I think this is not only a bad idea period, but it is a bad idea also for first-time sex. I'm upset that it's going down like this.

I don't understand why you are fighting and I don't understand why you didn't discuss this issue earlier.

Kissing!

Okay, he's just asked her out on a date. They still haven't kissed and we are on page 153 FYI.

When she looked up, it would've been so easy to kiss her. To tug her onto his lap and do more. But what kind of man would that make him?

His lemony aftershave acted like an aphrodisiac. She'd forgotten how heavenly he smelled.

I'm glad he calmly, compassionately put his foot down with his ex-wife. That was good.

Why are you 'friends' with this unpleasant woman? Find friends who actually care about you.

I just don't think you should compare your children to toys.

Maybe she was caught up in the fun of the moment, but she felt his words as clearly as if he'd whispered them in her ear. She imagined his breath, warm on her neck, and despite the day's heat she shivered. Something about the silent exchange struck her as intimate. And good. And she never wanted the feeling to end.

Haven't kissed yet. Decent tension.

More diet talk

I wish there wasn't so much talk of weight in this. It's really dampening my enjoyment of the book.

Miffed? Although why she'd be upset with him, he wouldn't know.

Well, maybe because you just implied you thought she invited you in for a booty call. Don't play stupid with me.

She could only imagine his intoxicating smell - sun and sweat and that extra, manly something that never failed to raise her pulse a few notches.

I'm pissed at him scolding his mom for her eating.
