My first Taylor Jenkins Reid and after hearing all the praise, I was so excited to read this one! With a premise that I may have shied away from due to the subject matter - I am not usually one for negative relationship storylines, but I had to give this author a try.
The set up for the book was fantastic. The first chapter was a present day snapshot of their marriage in the middle of a speed bump and then the author takes you back in time to when they met, through their dating courtship and into the early moments of the marriage. I loved the rewind to get the reader up to speed. Then the real drama of the story began and I loved the honesty. The characters felt like they were based off people in real life - I even laughed at some of the things they did and said because I could see myself doing those things.
