I read the 2 McCallan books by this author and enjoyed them so I decided to buy this one too. I realise now that this must have been the first book she published and it's pretty evident. The style is more uneven and there are lots of mistakes. I didn't enjoy the melodrama in this book and it got on my nerves.+++Spoilers+++At one point we understand that the h is raped by her stalker ex, thankfully it is not graphically written about. What I didn't like is that it is dealt with so matter of factly. I don't like the tendency of NA authors to include rape in their stories because I don't think they deal with the emotional fall out that would inevitably come afterwards. For me the h 'recovered' from the incident without any major repercussions or emotional trauma. It didn't work for me and I wish she'd rather left it out that treat it so 'lightly'.I'd be tempted to read another in this series since I know her writing definitely improved after this book.
