Yes, And by Kristi Coulter
3.0
This is a short story in yet another Amazon Collection, The One. The collection seems to focus on love and romance, including love for one's children, pets, as well as romantic partners.
"Yes, And" was written well and, for that, it deserves three stars. However, the narrator is incredibly unsympathetic. She is essentially telling her story to justify an incredible act of betrayal toward her husband who, surprisingly, accepts it. Despite all of that, I don't think rating the book based on my opinions of the character is right, just know that if you read it, you may be fairly pissed off for a little while later.
I always enjoy these Amazon Collections as the stories are short and easily digested over your morning coffee, a lunch break, or (as is often in my case) right before nodding off to bed. You get a short sampling of an authors work, and I have found a few new favorite authors I otherwise wouldn't have found through reading these.
