I like stories of two ex's who still love each other, but then there's conflict because of whatever misunderstanding pushed them apart in the first place.  This story had some really touching moments highlighting what Lauren and Chad have done to compensate for the loss of the other person in their life that shows that they still care about each other and really felt the loss.  However, I had a hard time getting into this story and the characters.  Although I can't exactly pinpoint the reasons, I think it was probably a combination factors.  The first was that it was confusing to understand what kept these two apart in the first place (and the factors were so hard to believe once you did find out), plus I felt as though Lauren (the ex-Miller) had to make more amends to try to reconcile this relationship even though she's suffered just as much as Chad and, lastly perhaps there was a bit of needing the "men to take charge" of the situation to make it right even though Lauren was supposedly just as smart and capable of a person in the protection arena.  It's not that any of these factors were strongly present, but there was just enough of the tilt in this direction that when you combine all these elements, it made it a less enjoyable a read for me.
