ARC received for an honest review

Today I have popped my Mia Asher cherry with Love Me In The Dark - I know, I know, I haven't been under a rock all this time time, I know about her books but just finding time to read them has been the problem!

This is a sweet, sexy, sometimes sad but always hopeful story. Valentina is at a cross roads in her life and relationship. Her hubby is a d!ck, no other words for him, and she is on a journey of self discovery in Paris. You can't help but feel hopeful for her, but at times she annoyed me just a little.

Well, maybe a lot, since at one point I wanted to crawl into the book and clonk her over the head with my Kindle to knock some sense into her.

And by sense I mean Sebastian, the sexy french artist who is now her neighbour. He is all kinds of swoony and sexy and french - though the smoking thing is a bit of a turn off (but this could just be me).

I said before the Valentina's husband William is a d!ck. Well, the more the story progressed, the more and more I disliked him. And then we got some chapters from his POV and there really was not one redeeming feature about him. Just no.

I really was Valentina's biggest cheerleader (even when she was annoying me!). My heart was filled with hope that she would finally do what was right for her, would throw herself at Sebastian (or I would take her place!)
