Untying the Knot is a spin-off of Meghan Quinn’s Cane Brothers series. It falls chronologically between the second and third book in that series. It is a contemporary romance about a marriage in trouble. There are spicy scenes in it.
Honestly, this is probably my least favorite Meghan Quinn book that I’ve read to date. I found Myla to be so unlikeable and unrelatable. Her character’s actions had me SO close to a DNF for this book. I was ready to throw in the towel at about 20%.
The only thing keeping me engaged enough with the story to keep reading is the flashbacks of the start of their relationship. I really disliked present day Myla but I came around on her character a smidge with the flashbacks. I did enjoy the banter between characters. I am glad I finished it—but I also think I would’ve been just fine having not even started it in the first place.
