If I didn't finish it I guess I have to give it one star. I wanted to give this series another try because there is certainly nothing wrong with the story telling, urban fantasy aspect of the writing. But, this book started out with more of the whining and obsessive negative self talk about Corine and Chance. I couldn't stand it. I couldn't bear to read a whole book while inside the lead character's head while she vacillated back and forth on her previous feelings for this man. It completely detracted from the story and made this book come perilously close to being a wallbanger.
