review 1: I was waiting impatiently for this book ever since I sped through the first three books this summer. And it did not disappoint. I was worried by the title (just like I am by the next one being called The Baby) but luckily Neil and Sophie do the opposite of break up in it. There remain one of my favorite couples in fiction. They're just so perfect together - perfect in a real way, where they have fights and issues and they work through them together. The love scenes were really hot as always esp the one with Gina. The wedding was so romantic. The warning took me out of the book at first because I worried it would happen anytime but the way it was worked in was much better than I feared. My only complaint is that the wrap up of the Stephen part at the end felt out of place, ... moremaybe because I thought the chapter before was the last one. I can't wait for the Baby and First Time - my money is on Ian and Penny as the characters.
review 2: Amazing, exellent,knock me out of my socks.... stll is one of my favourite series and on of my favourite couple.Sofie is one of the kind female character that doesn't do drama. She is down to earth and regardless of her age I have great respect of her and her views. You don`t have to agree with her choices (although I do) but you grow to resspect and love her. This is a kinky romance love story but sounds so real. They have ordinary problems that aren`t boring to read. They age difference is something that is present and they all are aware of that and all the feelings that comes along with it, every problem is so normal that everybody would do similar facing it. I specially loved her weak moments when she cries while shopping (because she is now billionaire) and buys expensive stuff, and indulges in his wealth without being gold digger. Without "I don˙t want to touch his money to prove that I love him, not his money" bullshit... blah... barf.. he knows that... and that is what is important. They face a lot of obstacles that usually we don`t read in romance. And both of them are so aware of each other, cool headed and fight like in real life.The second book was my favourite not because it was sad and deals with illness but because of the way Sofie pulled it through, and that she made normal grown up people decisions.Titles of these book can confuse you, they are not always what you think it means and what you will be reading. We meet a lot of exes and this one is someone you wouldn`t expect, but it`s not the center of the book. Neal is hot and older and kinky but so immature like all the men, everywhere, all ages.... but Sophie is someone you would like to be friends with. She doesn`t do tradition and has her opinion but she admits if she is wrong and honest...... is the second thing that got me in love with them. They don't keep anything from each other.And finally Sofie doesn't want kids, and neither does Neil and if it works for them, nobody should be having saying in the mater. Sophie is from beginning with both feet on the ground, she knows that she doesn`t have a lot of time with him and that she will unlive him, and I was pleasantly surprised that she isn`t changed her mind from the very first line in the first book.We are not all the same, and reading something little different is so refreshing and fun. Thank You Abigail for Your wonderful writing and exquisite mind.All the kinky sex is just bonus. less
