Angel’s Guilty Pleasures

The emotional development is non-exiting for our leads. Tyler was married, but his wife died. Lily was married too, but was getting a divorce when her husband died.

Tyler and Lily are back home for different reasons and meet up again. She still has feelings for him, first love, no one really gets over them. I couldn’t tell if Tyler ever cared for Lily or not, then and now. Back in high school he was dating Lily for several years. They never had sex during that time, yet at the same time he was dating Lily he was sleeping with a women 15 years his senior. Infidelity. Cheating. Big no no for me even if it did happen as teenagers. I expected their to be groveling, major groveling, and addressing this issue; between the characters. They don’t talk about the past, what happened in-between, then and now.

What they do is act like horny teenagers. We have the first “date” going out to dinner, but instead of dinner he says “let’s just skip the dinner & get down to business”. OMG!! And, what does she do, she agrees. Not once is his betrayal mentioned or remembered. These two have two dates and all they do is have sex. What the heck? And, the sex. It was unprotected. OMG!! Their is a brief mention that he says he’s clean and Lily thinks she can’t get pregnant; because her and her dead ex-husband had tried for years to have another kid, with no luck. That’s it. Then her mother-in-law called the next day and tells her about her ex-hubby’s secret vasectomy.. Uhhh!!

When they do sit and talk, it’s no big deal. No addressing any of the issues. As for his infidelity he says it was just sex with Doreen, nothing more. She just lets it slide. At this point I’m shaking my head and throwing my hands in the air. How in the world can that be it of the talk? How can she not care? Ahhh!! It clearly affected her life, with the distance her father put between them and that she only married to try and move on, but she didn’t truly love her ex-husband. Then their is a 13 year old kid that might or might not be Tyler’s from his affair with Doreen and Lily is like, A OK with this. WTF???

Then theirs the blatant flaunt of money and things that are nice and fancy. Family secrets that come out. So many little plot things going on with Tyler Creed and not all the plot things ever get resolved or completed.
