The cheating subplot is mostly focused on the h's brother and his wife, but you are going to want to see him flattened with a skillet so many times he can be slipped under the door when the OW returns him to his wife and family.
The main romance is incredibly annoying. The H is an arrogant, tedious jackass who thinks the h should be berated into loving him and submitting to his advances. He's part right: she would benefit from being berated -- she makes terrible choices and is very annoying -- but not by him. ...more

The h is the (emotional/some kisses) cheater in this one, although she's agonized because her husband doesn't love her and possibly has done something dishonorable. The H deserved better, and the OW should all have been run out Greece and put on the next boat to Cyprus, which Hampson seems to depict as a sexist hell in her other books.
