This is a story about a couple who marry temporarily for all the wrong reasons because of a pregnancy that developed from a one night stand. Claire never grew up with love or affection but instead had a father who belittled her and called her horrible names. Clay, on the other hand,not only grew up wealthy but with the most loving parents. During their marriage Catherine has such a low self esteem because of the damage her father caused by his mistreatment. Clay tries desperately to help her,Sometimes I find myself rating a book higher than I would on hindsight simply because all the author's other books have been so wonderful. This is probably the case here. Also, LaVyrle Spencer can sure write in a way that tugs at my heartstrings. I have recently been re-reading some of my older books and when I came across this one I felt no desire to re-read it. What does that say? That it was too bittersweet for me? Probably. I remember I kept rooting for the h&h and that when the HEA came

As the weeks go by and they settle into their new home, Clay tries to make the best of their marriage. But Catherine won't let go of the past and refuses to give her heart to her husband.I usually love
You know, I really like LaVayrle Spencer's writing, but this one was just way too draining. Not to mention the heroine is a real bitch, maturing and redeeming herself much too far into the tale for me to give a damn.
This was one of the two books I read last night. Two very emotional books that just ripped me apart.For me, Separate beds did not have a happy ending.I hated Clay.I never ever ever wanted him to be happy.I do not care if he realized he loved Cat in the end. He was pure and simple-a very selfish monster.All of the people that read my rews already know how strongly I feel about my heroines. I am not really a feminist. I am not really so much for girl power. I really believe we do need man and I
I read this book when it first came out. Loved it then and love it now. There are stories that linger in your heart and this is one of them. It felt to read it again. I wish LaVyrle Spencer would come out of retirement.
