Three and a half stars, if I could.I really liked the beginning of this book...and the ending. It was the middle that I found a bit of a drudge. The heroine was quite sassy and I liked her voice - until she started peppering with way too many curse words that just didn't add to the story. I don't mind cursing, in its place. But the gratuitous language used by the heroine and her friends and colleagues became a bit wearing after a while. Add in girls in a bar-room brawl and I started feeling like it was getting too trashy - I don't watch reality tv about peoples' mundane lives in the 'burbs (or the shores or wherever), so there's little appeal in a storyline that seemed to be stooping to a similar level.When the author moved the heroine to a new location, with her family, I really felt the story picked up again.Promising enough read that I'd look at future works from this writer.
