The Anatomy of Cheating: A Novel por Nesly Clerge
I picked this up with my kindle unlimited subscription just to try something different. this book is my first by author Nelsy Clerge, while i enjoyed the concept and the dark twists and turns I wanted to shake the couple by the time I finished. While infidelity happens more often then we know about, I felt that some of the scenes were just too obvious. I felt horrible for both sides and almost compelled to read the Starks series after this, job well done to the author for making me curious.
Wow!! Stark is back..and with a vengeance!! I love where the author has taken this main character and how he is constantly evolving. I loved the first book, and the second one was even better!
When can we expect #3 Mr. Clerge!!??

Frederick Starks is a highly-successful, very wealthy CEO. He somewhat inexplicably confronts not his wife current but her once-removed lover, goes over the edge, puts him into a coma and ends up in jail as a result. Starks is a complicated man who suffers from some very conflicted feelings toward his wife. Perhaps love has been one of those feelings, but they mainly seem to be feelings of possession and he seems to suffer from wounded pride rather than true injury.
I am a little at a loss for what to say about this book. It is well-written and at moments enthralling. The prison atmosphere is stifling and (for someone like myself who has no first-hand knowledge of what prison is like) realistic. There were times when I thought Starks was a bit weird in his mental and emotional makeup, concentrating on some very peripheral issues when some very serious ones were at hand. His continued obsession with Kayla (the wife) is a bit hard to fathom in light of the long-term relationship that is revealed. Starks is a strong character who adapts quickly to change, which is essential in his circumstances. His evolution propels the story.
For me the story ends too abruptly, with far too many ends that I wanted to see tied up. It absolutely feels like it is the first installment in a series, but there is nothing to indicate this in the title. If it is not meant to be part of a series, it simply left me feeling it was incomplete and as if I had invested in a movie with a power failure cutting short the last 30 minutes.
Mr. Clerge has a great deal of skill as a storyteller. He writes in a genre that I do not frequently read, so he is no doubt very impressive to those who follow this genre. I think he has a good future in writing, despite my inability to applaud this novel in the way that some others have.… (más)

“You have to come to terms with what you can do and let go of thoughts about what you want to do but can’t.”
Frederick Starks had it all, a beautiful wife, three wonderful kids, a beautiful home and a thriving business, but his neat and tidy life came to an abrupt halt when he found out his wife betrayed him. When Starks takes the law into his own hands, he is convicted and thrown into a maximum security prison where he has to learn quickly to survive in a very dangerous environment.
Starks is an anti-hero. He comes across as arrogant and entitled, but also vulnerable and exposed. He not only tries to come to terms about his wife’s betrayal, but also struggles to just stay alive. Will his quick wits and business savvy keep him alive, or will more secrets in his life be his undoing? The reader will have to find out in the second of Clerge’s Stark’s Trilogy, When the Dragon Roars.
