Review: Rushed and lacked enough heart
Rating: 3 out of 5

Let me start off by saying I love most of this writer's work.That being said, this book let me down. I loved some aspects but they weren't fleshed out enough. I'm gonna try to explain with very little spoilers...There was a scene toward the end that should have been devastating. I should have been bawling. But I didn't. I was fleetingly sad and quickly shocked out how fast Nikki bounces back from what should have shaken her entire world.The relationships weren't delved into enough, and the connections seemed sorta pulled from midair instead of backed up by events. Especially the relationship with who she ends up with in the end. I was always rooting for him, but I didn't quite grasp how Nikki fell into his arms again. I felt like there should have been more parts where he was trying to win her back, or even more quick blips where they had meaningful moments.SPOILER!!!!And what the heck?! At the end it's just thrown in that she was his wife in a past life after-all? It's just sorta passed over like it's nothing. That was a huge story line that could have been furthered and it was just left dangling.In the end I felt like the writer was anxious to end this series, had an idea on where she wanted to go with it, and just rushed it. I just wish there had been more oomph.
