    A Husband's Regret

    Written by Natasha Anders

    4/5

    About this audiobook

    Tall and thin, twenty-eight-year-old Bronwyn Palmer has become positively gaunt, a ghost of her former self. That self was—and still is—the wife of a rich, handsome executive with an ocean-view house and his own security staff.

    It was in that house, two years ago, that Bryce Palmer learned Bronwyn was pregnant with their first child. But Bryce’s rage over his impending fatherhood touched off a chain reaction of emotional and physical traumas that wounded them both. For Bronwyn, it meant fleeing the perfect marriage to start over with nothing but a precocious daughter named Kayla to care for. For Bryce, it meant a tortuous two years spent blaming his wife for deserting him, and living with the pain of not knowing his child. Now a chance encounter has brought Bronwyn back into Bryce’s life, both bearing scars…and neither knowing the whole truth of that fateful night that drove them apart.

      It was a long story
      But it was ok
      I liked how much they love each other but don’t know how to show it ❤️❤️
    • 5/5
      It’s beautiful and lovely . Full of emotions and reality’s.
    • 3/5
      Trigger for an emotionally abusive husband at the beginning. I wasn't sure I wanted to wait for the redemption. I did, but I didn't like this one as well as the first.

      Bronwyn left two years earlier when her husband, Bryce, told her to get out after learning she was pregnant. Struggling to make enough to support herself and her child, she is discovered when she becomes ill and Bryce brings them both home. She is shocked to find out that he was in an accident while she was gone and is now deaf.Both of them have misunderstood the other and now fears and mistrust run deep. With the help of their adorable child, they must find a way back to each other.I enjoyed this story; it tugs at one's heartstrings. Parts of the storyline were just a little too 'over-the-top' for me at times, but both Bryce and Bronwyn make for a nice couple and their romance is just different enough to make their story interesting and a bit different than the usual fare.

      I received this arc for a honest review

      What can I say, I did really like this book, it's a slightly different plot to what I'm use to reading but I was so engrossed I managed to read it within a day.
    • 4/5
      In the heat of the moment hurtful words can be spoken and unfortunately they usually have little to do with the present moment, and so was the case with the news of Bronwyn's pregnancy and Bryce's reaction to it. This tale of unspoken words, mistaken assumptions and broken souls, was heart wrenching to read.

      This book pulled no punches from page 1 and, once again, I was drawn into the characters relationship, immediately feeling the hurt and heartache that accompanied Bryce's words.

      My heart went out to Bronwyn and each hurtful word spoken cut deeper every time. Bryce was cruel and spiteful in his words and actions towards Bronwyn, and I was curious as to how he was going to redeem himself. When we discover the full extent of Bryce's traumatic childhood, we come to understand why he has the opinion he has of himself and how it affected his present day thinking. I didn't agree with him keeping this a secret for so long but he is a proud man and thought that the consequences of telling his story to Bronwyn would be far worse than keeping it to himself. In the end it came down to trust between two people that would build a far stronger relationship.

      Brownwyn was a shattered woman when Bryce threw her out and I thought she had courage to maintain her independence after Kayla was born. I thought her actions once Bryce was back in her life were understandable, even though I didn't agree to the extent to which she made Bryce atone at one point. She had suffered a lot of emotional pain at his hands and she was protecting her child and her own heart.

      Particularly in the first half of the book, for me, this relationship had a sort of historical romance/Mills & Boon feel to it, the dialogue between the characters, some of the characters reactions and the general narration. I found it easy to relate to the characters and enjoyed the dual point of view, giving us both sides of the story. I thought the flashbacks blended well with the storyline and gave us just enough each time without giving away the entire plot in one go.

      It was an angsty read and although I did feel that halfway through, the book lost a bit of momentum for me, it did pick up again and I thought it finished well. I enjoyed the epilogue and thought that the time frame was perfect.

      Even thought this is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone and I am looking forward to the third book in this series.
