The first part of the book had a lot of humor; so that was pretty good.  I liked it that the hero like others of his kind is very caring and thoughtful.  The series has some good sci-fi bits.  The overall series concept is interesting.  These are some of the good things about this book.Here are some of the negatives.  The book has too much filler; so it gets boring.  I haven't even read the second half, and will just skim it.  The heroine is not very appealing.  She has very little empathy for the hero even though she knows very well that he has been through a terrible experience.  It is understandable that she would not want to be separated from her family and would want to use her nursing degree.  So, why doesn't she tell this guy that she would always be unhappy if she can't see much of her family and can't use her skills.  He is so intent on making her happy that you would think he'd be willing to make concessions.  So. the whole conflict is too contrived and becomes tedious.  The sex scenes just don't have any sizzle at all.The story has some good elements.  So, it's too bad somebody didn't edit it or edit it more.
