Review: More SF Than Romance, But An Excellent Read

I almost by-passed this book when offered and that would have been a shame because it's a very enjoyable read.  It is a much bigger bite than most new offerings at almost 500 pages, but that allowed the writer to build a very complex, plausible alien setting.  I also want to sincerely thank the writer for a clean, very typo-free product that did not jar me out of the story line with error after error.This book is more for readers who like the action.  It is SF rather than fantasy or romance.  It is, in fact, rather romance light until the final chapters (although there is a certain simmering that slowly build between a double set of protagonists).  It doesn't qualify as a clean romance, because there is some sexual activity at the end, but it's also not a steamy book.  Character development was logical and built very well, especially considering the writer was working with two sets of protagonists and slowly braiding their stories together.  The plot is complex and keeps you wondering up to the end.  I was literally glued to this book until I finished.The only downside I saw, was that it didn't wrap completely at the finish but has a mild cliff hanger ending.  On the upside, I'm pretty sure that means another book down the road.  I'm looking forward to it and would highly recommend this book and future offerings from this writer.
