2.5 Stars. I liked this book in the beginning because of how realistic it was. Paisley's journey seemed genuine and I appreciated that she was learning about herself. However, towards the end, Hank completely flipped on Paisley and I didn't like it at all. How dare he call her a coward for being married to Trevor even though he wasn't a literal Prince Charming, and what was even worse, how dare he be mad at her for what Jake did. With Trevor, she was happy (at least she wasn't unhappy), she was young and the she thought that was what she wanted. It sucks that it didn't work out but it's not her fault. And the Jake thing was ridiculous. He blamed her for being afraid?? That's crap. Hank never said anything about his true feelings. He might have implied it but he never actually said the words so he has no right to be mad at Paisley for not knowing. I didn't like that complete change in his personality and it ruined the book for me.
