They have ties that bind.
June grew up in the shadow of her brother and his best friend, Drew McKenna. She stood back while Drew dated his way through high school and college, watching and waiting. Waiting for him to realize he loved her as much as she loved him.
When he did, it was the happiest she’d ever been. Until she found him with another woman only five years after their marriage.
Leaving her husband was a simple decision, but there was no easy way to cut him out of her family.
When June receives a fresh start to her career, she also finds what could be a new lease on love. Reality hits Drew with a vengeance.
He wants her back.She wants to make him suffer.

I don’t often find a book that crosses a line that I didn’t know I had. I’m not going to say that this book found that line, but it made me realize that I wouldn’t be able to forgive someone who cheated. Drew is supposedly so in love with June, yet he purposefully seeks out others. He was selfish and an asshole. Not just because of what he did to June, but also to her brother (his best friend) and their mom (who was like a mom to him). While the book only focused on the fallout between June and Drew, the entire family was touched by this and I couldn’t get past it. I don’t care about the whys, he consciously did it, and kept siding with his mistress and that didn’t sit right with me.
