Love Her or Lose Her: A Novel (Hot and Hammered Book 2)<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

So, I accidentally read this whole ebook one night without realizing it’s book 2 in the Hot & Hammered series. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I only checked Goodreads to mark it as finished. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Admittedly, there was some clues such the feeling that we should know the characters and their marital struggles, as well as all their friends. But I decided to ignore that and read on. I’ve since read the other 2 books as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This one features Rosie and Dominic. Rosie is obsessed with cooking and wants her own restaurant. Dominic, recently back from army duty and joining a friend’s construction business, does not understand where the sudden request for counseling comes from. More a guru than counselor admittedly but Rosie has her reasons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The unconventional approach of said guru was interesting and he’s quite a funny guy, sending the the pair on all sorts of activities and assigning homework. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s almost like them getting to know each other all over again, rediscovering their love and what they may or may not have lost along the way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This has been the most difficult read so far, because of their background and of witnessing their struggles (some first hand, some retold). At the same time, I did not care much about this couple. I would, however, like to try Rosie’s cooking as everything she makes sounds delicious. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mad respect for the ‘Just Us League’ and Rosie’s support group. Her friends are pretty amazing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stephen and his wife are a most hilarious couple, I’d love to read their origin story. I don’t think there is one yet, but I hope there will be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, this is the weakest book in the Hot & Hammered series, an observation I’m making after reading all three books. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
