This being the 4th installment of the chronicles, I was hoping to see more emotion and connection between Ally, Nick and Eric but this unfortunately didn't happen.  I just didn't feel the triad especially when they were constantly pairing off coupled, with someone always being left out, more so Nick.  I think it was only once or twice that all three shared a bed not necessarily to do the wild and wonderful but because they were supposed to be in a relationship together and therefore would have been wanting the closeness and the intimacy of sleeping with one another.  Hardly any tenderness of a genuine triad existed.  After everything was out in the open why did Nick still have a guest bedroom?  All three main characters seemed to be too weak to make decisive decisions about their lives and were constantly at the mercies of either circumstances or other people's agendas.  This is how most of the angst was created in the story and after a while it just became frustrating.  It constantly seemed as if their love for  one another wasn't strong enough nor their commitment to be make their relationship work.  It was only towards the very end that they all took a stance in their individual ways and decided in favour of their relationship above all else.  The angst or conflict didn't seem solid or real enough but more a ploy by the author to extend the length of the novel and thereby the series; or it could be that it just didn't do it for me so maybe you should decide for yourselves. The sex scenes weren't that hot either, just more of the same being repeated.  Sorry that my review isn't very favourable but hopefully the author would take some pointers from it.
