Bittersweet Surrender is the first book in the Bittersweet duet from QB Tyler. First off, if you don’t enjoy reading about cheating then avoid this duet. 😅 As the entire setup is the heroine having an affair with her marriage counselor (the hero and heroine cheat together, not on one another if that makes a difference to you). Buttttt if you know the premise and are down for some fun, this book delivers on that!

“I was a good wife…until I wasn’t.”

Charlotte has been with her husband for 8 years when the story starts and we found out 4 months ago she started sleeping with their marriage therapist, Will. Her marriage had already fallen apart a year prior and she only went to counseling because her husband demanded it and wouldn’t give her a divorce. So it’s not even a love triangle situation. But what started as a fantasy and lust-filled, over the 4 months Will and Charley start to have real feelings for one another.

“I’m in a relationship with two men and neither of them are giving me up.”

I listened to this duet on audio and they were a fun time! Obviously the way the story is set up it’s going to be messy, but I was in the mood for that kind of read. I did think it was a little longer than needed, I was ready for her to move forward with the divorce sooner cause it was obvious the marriage was done. Or maybe if they hadn’t gotten together so early on, the tension and angst of that would have been soo good!
