Review of 'Trial by Desire' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Really enjoyed the couple in this. I have a dire weakness for remarriage plots and while this wasn't quite as emotionally thorny as some of my favorites, Ned and Kate's problems were engaging, as was their affection for each other.

I especially enjoyed how kind they were to each other and the fact that the book dealt with bipolar disorder and spousal abuse without being gross.
