No it's not over. The story was brilliantly written. It's told in first person point of view. It reminds me of the Roman Catholic practice of Penance in that much of the dialogue is reflective and confessional. In my mind, the characters are each taking turns in a confession booth, telling their side of the story with vivid scene depictions inserted in the the story telling.The dimensional characters makes this an interesting read. Danielle (Red) is somewhat of a self absorbed snob. However, she has some redeeming qualities as well. Malcolm reminds me of a younger Fitz (from Scandal). He's privileged and has the makings of a politician. And then there's poor Jon, a pseudo-racist after learning his wife's new boyfriend is Caucasian, a lousy husband but good father.The plot is rich. A secret admirer, a secret affair, a failing marriage, long awaited love, unrequited love, a stalker, and that's just scratching the surface. The ending will leave you breathless and wanting more. Brilliantly done.  This book comes highly recommended.
