My rating: 1 of 5 stars

3 ⭐⭐⭐ - OK decent reads.
=======================

UPDATE: Reread- November 2019 (Added 2 stars)

Our heroes have issues.
He had a complicated childhood because he was in charge of taking care of his younger siblings and practically forgotten by his parents.
She never met her own father and her mother raised our heroine on her own.
The cheating with Gina (homewrecking whorebag) is not well explained, only that they were coworkers and after a fight, where our heroine suspects she is pregnant and our hero refuses to have children, she catches them having sex in his office. I suspect the two already had some involvement as they worked together.
She immediately kicks him to the curb and divorces.
Each time they have a fight, our hero feels rejected and reacts in some way.
Our heroine is always criticizing him and he resents it.
After divorce they are 5 years without seeing each other.
He appears in social columns with several other women over the years and she is dating a colleague.
But after the accident in which a building he designed collapses, they are reunited and have sex. She gets pregnant and the drama begins.
Insecurity, doubts, old grudges, all come up.
I confess that I enjoyed this second reading better and didn't remember the heroine being so annoying and our hero so domineering.
It was a good read.
