Once, again, I enjoyed being back in KA's Colorado and now in a different CO, than the Dream Series Denver or Carnal/Gnaw Bone settings. Loved these characters, loved their gentle and passionate relationship and unique way in the world.BUT I must agree with another articulate reviewer here when I say I too was disappointed in Ivey's transformation into a Vegas showgirl. OKAY, she wasn't a typical stripper, but how did this tomboy turn into the highest paid burlesque dancer in Vegas? hmmm. NOT. I too would have liked to see her go into playing pool again or if not-- POKER, as she had an intense brilliant gift of seeing and feeling when it came to physics/math for a girl (which was made much of in the beginning and was great!) who only had a 12 year old's education and a gritty life on the lam. It was a waste, a shame, and a bit kitchy too!!! I was cringing and laughing at the same time. Yes, poker would have been good. I liked Lash, though, etc. And I too was surprised that our hero didn't propose sooner seeing as things got so intense from the beginning & they both knew this was IT. And that he didn't suspect her rotten brother and try to follow them...Still, it was an absorbing read as ever. I enjoyed the thorough epilogue as usual. Nice not to have a kidnapping and a shootout/knifing for a change, too!! Thanks KA! New series, eh??
