As a realistic I would love to read this book since it is discussing a reality base problem. She is balancing two important stones of life.. That is personal and professional life and most of people fail to do so. It has grab great interest of mine. If I could read a review thrice with full interest then hope so I would love to read the book... Great review just mind blowing.

The sample was enough to give me an idea of what the book was going to be. I liked CJ's character and the contrasting fates in her personal and professional life. Thank you for the review!

A character-driven story that deals with professional integrity dilemmas and marriage issues sounds interesting. It's not my first choice, so I think I'll pass. However, you have done a great job on the analysis! Thank you!

The sad part of a love story, "I thought it was fascinating how such an intelligent woman could be so clueless in regards to relationships." I definitely agree with that matter. Sometimes an intelligent woman is not smart enough when it comes to relationships.

I think that this would be a great read as it is character driven.

I do like the way the main character is described. Many books I have read struggle to build a well rounded main character as it sounds like CJ is. I look forward to checking this one out.

This review is extremely well written. I am not certain I will read the book as it's not my usual style, but this review gave me pause for sure. I appreciate such a clear view into the characters and story line. Thank you for writing such a wonderful review.

I love the character of CJ. She is a successful woman career-wise, yet who still has flaws as a person. I love how her character reacted as a normal person when faced with a problem. And there's no shame in that.

I love this storyline; it is relatable. CJ obviously doesn't have it all, and I hope she got it right.
Great review.

I have always thought that having a successful career would mean having a blissful marriage. On the contrary this book has proved otherwise. CJ may have probably neglected her marriage in pursuit of a successful career hence creating a gap between her and the husband. My guess though.
Thanks to the reviewer who did a perfect review.

While reading the review, I thought to myself that this is why I won't invest any more of my time nor effort in committed relationship. Stories about people being on top of their game in career and business are what I think is worth reading.
