Review: A Romance story with almost nonexistent romance.

This was a well written novella and although I felt the characters were likable, they were also somewhat flat.  The author  didn't do a lot of character building within the confines of the story.  As for the romance aspect, all I can say is "what romance?"...  I'm not sure that writing a few hurried lines into the end of a book qualifies as "sparks flying" and romance.  Perhaps your ideas are different.  In any event, I understand this was the third and final book in the trilogy but I can't, for the life of me, understand why the author would market the final book and not the first in the series. I picked this one up off the top 100 free list and although I enjoyed it, I'm not sure I found it compelling enough to entice me to purchase the first two books in the series; after all, I already know the ???ending???  This novella does provide a quick diversion but it also leaves you with a "Wha?-it's over?-yikes!-I thought it was just getting started", sort of feeling. It might have been better having that type of reaction after the first and second books, not the third and final one.
