I don't know what possessed me to add this book that has me checking pub date 2016!?!

It has the vibe of a book written in the late 90s or 00s with the fashion / style to match.

He drives a Hummer & I thought surely, can't be newer than 2010. But it is.

Strong not like other girl vibes and macho man pairing. In the past couple of books, my tolerance for nonsense had been so high I wondered if my reading was broken, but I can safely conclude there are still books out there that I cannot take.… (plus d'informations)

I love reconciliation marriage books.
I liked there was no cheating on either side. Both had opportunity if they had given encouragement to other interested parties but esp the husband expresses he only ever wanted his wife.
I was a bit puzzled with some actions early on.
They split at the start, the heroine pushes for it, the Hero reluctantly agrees.
Then the story jumps 6 months on, the heroine is going on a date, her friend told her her husband, the Hero recently was seen on a date with another woman.
The Hero later clarifies his brother pressured him to go, just as the friend of the wife pressures her to go, and neither of them connect with their dates.
I just didn't understand the Hero.
He didn't want to move out and split but what did he do in the 6 months that followed the initial split to get back together?
Why did he give in to pressure to date the other woman? He didn't seem to have enough backbone to me.
His dating could have led to a permenant split/divorce if things had worked out differently.
I liked they both accepted responsibility for the breakdown in their relationship.
Dual POV.
Secondary characters drop breadcrumbs for possible future storylines.
They do some very honest conversations, that are very realistic.

Trey Turner, famous country music singer, is busy touring and drinking when his wife, Sierra, goes into early labor and loses her baby. Their marriage falls apart and Sierra files for divorce.

Fast forward five years, where we see that Trey has managed to once again descend into a downward spiral after witnessing a car accident that takes the life of a little girl who would be the same age as his daughter. He can't seem to recover, has writer's block, and longs for his former wife. Since Sierra has moved on with a successful songwriting career and a new fiance, Trey's sister calls her to help Trey. Unable to turn her back on the man she once loved, even if he did break her heart, she returns. Predictable misunderstandings ensue until they reach their "happily ever after" and all is forgiven. There was really nothing in this cliche of a romance that was enjoyable.… (plus d'informations)
