Another sweet second chance romance
Once again the author has put together a sweet but emotional second chance romance after a married couple go through a difficult phase in their relationship due to misunderstandings.I love her writing style as it is descriptive and evokes the feelings and emotions the characters are going through. The spicy scenes are beautifully done as well.

Too many improbable happenings for one story. Book had potential to have been much better.
A Husband’s Regret is a stand-alone story with the early premise of an unwanted wife with a two year old child being located, and subsequently reunited with the husband who had rejected her after informed of the pregnancy. The book includes multiple sexual interludes which are sensuously described in detail. The story itself has a lot more meat to it than did The Unwanted Wife, book 1 of this series, but I found that book to be more believable. Most of the angst in A Husband’s Regret seemed falsely created, as if the author kept adding more and more story elements just to create a cohesive whole out of one which didn’t really exist. It felt like padding on top of padding, rather than a believable story. Here are just a few inconsistencies: It’s bizarre that Bronwyn would be desperately in love with Bryce, and yet, although having sensuous sexual interludes with him, start rejecting him right after he indicates that he wants to have a family life with her and their child. Additionally, Bryce's behavior of continually resenting Bronwyn for her supposed actions, and yet refusing to listen her side of what had happened, and after hearing it to even consider her side, makes no sense, especially given his obvious feelings for her. Also, a formerly hearing person who was subsequently deaf for many years would not have acquired the speech reading/lip-reading skills portrayed in this book by the character, who had experienced a more recent hearing-impairment. Many, many persons who use signing skills as a means of communication do not acquire lip-reading/speech-reading skills, and even those highly skilled with speech-reading (lip-reading) skills can discern only about 30 % of conversation. Admittedly, this unrealistic portrayal might have disturbed me more than others, as I had worked in a related field for quite a few years. Unfortunately I found myself struggling to get through this book, not really caring enough to want to read it to conclusion. There were too many improbable happenings within the one main story. This was disappointing as I had really enjoyed The Unwanted Wife, and had therefore quickly purchased Book ll of the series. Sometimes good development of a basic story is enough, and adding a tangled weave of numerous other happenings is too much. In the case of A Husband’s Regret, the numerous improbable happenings detracted from what otherwise would’ve had the potential to become a very good story. That being said, it must be pointed out that this author seems to be not only capable of better work, but also a writer with good potential. I look forward to reading other works by her, if only to determine whether or not the quality of book 1 of The Unwanted series is an anomaly, or representative of better things to come. My anticipation is that her better works have yet to be seen, but are forthcoming.

Life
Men run from their own feelings and think people will judge them. This story is a real issue and I can understand what is happening

Anders does it again!
Wow the groveling!!! Well deserved, Justice for Bronwyn. She was so wronged. I spent the entire first half of the book trying to guess how she possible abandoned him, until he revealed him. I never would’ve guessed that’s how it went down. What an irrational, lovable man.It’s always more complicated when a child is brought into it. But this one was good. Well written.

Love this series!
When I usually start reading a book I go in thinking “OK it’s a 2-3 star read.” and I go from there, with this book however I went in thinking “Ok, book one I loved! So obviously I’m going to love this one. So lets start at 5 stars.” It did not at anytime venture below 4 stars for me.This book much like book one kept my attention through it’s entirety. It’s a very emotional read and I felt everything from the hero’s tormented past and how it effected his present, to the pain that the heroine suffered after being forced away by the one person she loved so much.Both characters are flawed and realistic. Bronwyn was a strong female lead and rather then letting others walk all over her, she stood up for herself. Bryce is one of my favorite hero’s, he has a horrible past that he rises above, even if he thinks that he is susceptible to becoming his father. The “miscommunication” between the two is so heartbreaking that I found myself a little teary eyed while reading it, again I felt their pain.I really enjoyed reading this book, just as much as I enjoyed the first book. I’m not going to go into explaining the book to much because I feel like I wouldn’t do it justice by trying to explain all the things about it or in it. The story line is deeply emotional and it’s written wonderfully. The pages are dripping with sexual tension, and the steamy scenes left my skin all tingly.I have a feeling that I will always have a crush on this author. But have no fear, Natasha Anders. I wont like stalk you or anything……maybe I should have ok’d my husband going to Africa for work, instead of South America…hmmmmm……OK, I’m just kidding about stalking but not kidding about loving your books.So, go and one click it now, you’ll love it. Also this can be read as a stand alone but I suggest reading both books in this series since they are both great reads!

Couldn’t connect with the story
2.5 🍭🍭Spanish & English Opinion🇲🇽 No pude conectar con los personajes… a ella la entendí al irse pero todo su drama fue muy extra. Él y su “alucinación” fueron absurdos y todo lo que hizo para según desquitarse… no. Simplemente no pude sentí conexión con la historia o los personajes.Puntos positivos: el estilo de escritura es ameno y fácil de leer y hay momentos lindos (cómo cuando se conocen).🇺🇸 It was impossible for me to connect with the story or the characters. I understood her when she left but the drama she went through seemed unreal and unbelievable.Then we have the hero… and his “hallucination” that was really absurd as well as his acting after that. It was just a story I felt connected to or characters I felt drawn to.Positive aspect: the writing style is nice and easy to read. There are some cute moments like when they meet.

A Beautiful Painful Love Story.
I absolutely loved this book at first you don't want things to go the husbands way after he caused Bronwyn so much pain but at the same time he was in a completely different type of pain.I loved the story and the end and can't wait for book 3. Something k did get from this book is sharing a painful won't hurt as much as pushing your partner away for them then to leave.A Must Read with 5stars.
