BLURB ➞
Who knew fighting for custody of an African grey parrot would be the perfect excuse to stay married?
Ryder King was always the one for me. He stole my heart in second grade, and I never imagined after seven blissful years of marriage, I’d give it back.
We made one tiny mistake by spending the night together during our separation period and the judge read all about it in the local gossip column. Okay, maybe it was two or three mistakes… but who’s counting?
Instead of granting our divorce, the judge mandated us to marriage counseling. The only way to get out of our marriage without waiting another six months was if our counselor agreed we’re all wrong for each other.
That’s when the fun really started…
A probing therapist, a gossiper who knows all, and a few of my unmentionables on prominent display revealed all our secrets. Seems Ryder and I were both guilty of hiding vital truths from each other.
And what happened behind closed doors…. well, let’s just say it’s the stuff headlines are made of.
One day, my entire world revolved around Ryder. The next day, he was torn from my hands.
ARC REVIEW ➞
Ryder and Olivia were childhood sweethearts, they got married right after graduating college, but now they are on the verge of divorce and in the middle of a custody battle over their pet parrot, Kiwi.
Despite going through a divorce there is still so much chemistry and love between Ryder and Olivia. You can feel the chemistry bursting off the pages throughout the entire story. The two of them still care for each other, they are still drawn to each other. They just need to learn to work out some of issues that lead the down the divorce path.
There are some secrets between them, but things do come out. There are things that hurt the other and things that they are afraid mention to the other. But until they fully open up to each other and truly talk about everything they can’t move forward in their lives.
I LOVED Kiwi. What a hilarious addition to this story. Ryder and Olivia love that bird so much and Kiwi plays such a large part in their relationship.
If you’re looking for a small town, second chance romance this is one to read!
