I should have stopped after the 1st chapter but persisted wanting to give this book a fair go; I eventually gave up after 75% when I realised I just was not enjoying it.  From the start, the opening chapter is really quite bizarre - it describes a fatal bear attack from the bear's point of view and as if the bear was human.  Then we have the MCs, Zane and Josh.  This is supposedly gay fiction but there is not an ounce of chemistry between them.  In fact we only know for sure they are in a relationship is because we are told they are.  As it is whenever Zane does "romatically" link up with Joshua, you get the impression it's because Zane had nothing else better to do.  Would you believe it, for their first "date", Zane invites Joshua to a symphony of all places (and there has never been any suggestion that either character even likes music). And as for Joshua, we really don't know what is going on his head, although towards the end and, after an apparent night of passion, he suddenly announces he is returning to Portland because his Dad needs him at work!  I could go on but I won't.
