Review: Covet

CovetCovet by Tracey Garvis-Graves
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow! yeah...um...that's all I've got for now.

I will not be able to write a review that will do this book justice. I loved Covet...it was so beautifully written!

Claire and Chris Canton's marriage is struggling due to various life factors (unemployment, finances, depression, new job, etc.). Claire develops a friendship with good-looking cop, Daniel and quickly becomes very comfortable with him. Boundaries are laid out, but one can only handle so much loneliness. I won't lie...there was more than one time where I wanted Daniel and Claire to cross the line, physically, but in the end, I'm glad they didn't.

I love how you got to see so many different types of marriages and lifestyles through Claire, Chris, Daniel and the friends/neighbors. Covet touched on cheating, addictions, child bearing struggles, depression and just overall everyday struggles that even the "perfect married couple" face.

This was my first Tracey Garvis Graves book and wow!!! I definitely plan to read more of her work.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me a copy of Covet in exchange for an honest review.
