I think this author writes well but I really did not like the heroine of this novel and since we are in first person, we are in only her head. This dislike ruined the book for me because I think it was a matter of lack of character development more than a personal distaste for a kind of personality.I get that one can be damaged by a past relationship and her confidence was shaken but this became her dominate personality trait. It would also be very inappropriate for a therapist to just hand out love advice and makes what MFT does much less complex that the job actually is so that bothered me. She wasn't quirky, thoughtful, self reflective, crass or any thing else than her feelings for her past relationship. I have no idea why her friends liked her or why Ethan, the hero would.I liked the setting of Sacromento. I love romances set in well know but lesser know places. I might try another book by this writer as the detail work here was good enough to take the risk of time.I was given this book for my honest review so there you have it.
