Although I found the premise of the book intriguing with the babies switched at birth story line, the father in the story was a pain. He has a steamroller personality and I felt that there would be no happier ever after for this couple. The woman in the story had to keep giving in to whatever he wanted for the children and for the relationship. Up to a couple of pages before the romantic finish, the woman was thinking about what a divorce would be like from this man. Kind of made my skin crawl when he molded her into what he wanted in a wife, complete in picking out her hairstyle, clothes and perfume. I could see this story moving into one of those creepy Lifetime movies with the controlling husband ultimately destroying the wife. I normally like Cathy Hake novels but this one not so much.
