*Spoilers follow*

I enjoyed this story, personally, but it was also another reason I agreed to help Cora with this blog. Jake doesn't do many reprehensible things in this story, and he loves his son, he's just an overall douchebag. He doesn't really want to take life seriously, he cheats on Bella (the reason she divorced him), and then lets the girl move into their house after Bella moves away with their son. Later on in the story, he explains how he'd kick out his girlfriend, if Bella agreed to move back in with him. Yeah. Jake lovers, avoid like the plague.
