Exhausting. I don't even know what to think other than this author may not be my jam

Without Honor is so well written, I just had to give it five stars, despite the hero's close relationship with the other woman, which is generally something I can't stand. He spends a night making love to his lady-friend, after he has met and kissed the heroine on several occasions and admits he cares for her. Ugh! Later in the book, the heroine catches the two of them in bed, but the hero does not bed the OW, because of the interruption or because of his feelings for the heroine, it's not quite clear which.
