I am a big fan of Stephanie Laurens, but this book really dissappointed me. Every scene was analyzed and re-analyze until I wanted to scream. What happend to all your witty conversations with a touch of humor. I realize each book should be different, but perhaps this book could have been a few pages shorter if Stephanie had taken out the "All that I am, All that she is, All that I need to be" converstions by the characters to themselves.
