I thought asking for a divorce would elicit a reaction from the cold, aloof mask he’s so fond of wearing these days. Can’t he see me? Can’t he see what’s happening to me? To him? To all of us? Ten years that I don’t want to throw away. We’ve been married for ten years this November. As if I’m invisible even when I’m in the same room as him, sharing the same bed as him, and supposed to be sharing a life with him. Why he’s chosen to make me feel so alone. Over the past seven months, he’s closed himself off to me. Because Lord knows I’ve exhausted my search for answers. Finally tell me what has gone wrong between us. My own eyes have been glued to the blank profile of his face for the last ten seconds since the words left my mouth. “No.” That’s all Leo says, not taking his eyes off the TV. I never pictured myself having to, but it’s done now.īut wishing means that I have some form of hope, and hope has no place in this house or this heart of mine anymore. This review is also available on Goodreads.The words ring hollowly in my ears, but they’re out. It would appeal to readers who enjoy low angst but intense story. I like how the connection between the characters was intense and the sex scenes were pretty hot.įrayed Silk is a story of pursuing happiness. The revelation was a good one, which I didn’t expect and I’m glad it touched something that was not usually featured in romance. The book was a lot less angsty than I expected but I’m ok with it.

I got the direction the author chose but I wanted one party to be featured more because that part of character/story development was stunted especially after something was expressed but never followed through. I won’t say which type this book is but I felt what happened was fixed too easily. When it comes to cheating, there are two types of story – the one that wreck it, or the one that mend it. His presence, despite not being the man I desperately want, is somehow soothing. Though, personally I wish she would have pushed more instead of just taking it. I understood her pain and her dilemma and I like how while she was dealing with her issue, she never neglected others around her. I could definitely put myself in Dahlia’s situation. I think it needs to snap, once and for all. I can’t keep hanging on by a frayed thread.

I can say I didn’t regret trying this new author to me.

And then I read the blurb, I knew I wanted to know more. This book first caught my attention with the beautiful cover. Starved for affection, she decided to take it even if it didn’t come from the man she promised her life to. Jared Williams came into her life when she needed him the most. When it all suddenly torn apart, she felt alone and was left questioning what when wrong. For years Dahlia and Leo Vandellen had an enviable marriage.
