Review: Definately different vibe than others in series

The Assassins series is one of my favorites (have 4 favorite series right now).  With that being said, I was so excited for this to come out with all of the hype from the facebook fan page but felt some dissapointment.  After reading it, my thoughts were as follows:1-had some obvious spelling/grammar errors that someone that has this much hype and success in the series, I expect it to be written perfect.  Just an example, in the epilogue Phillip and Reese were at the birthday party and in the dialogue between them it is stated Claire followed his gaze and said "I know, but the real test is coming with her leaving."  Clearly Claire should have been replaced with Reese.  There were some other big obvious things I would expect to be corrected, especially if this book was paper printed.2-I liked the steam of the story, yet it was very hot and cold for me a lot of times.3-Reese really annoyed the crap out of me at times.  I just find it hard to believe you are going to rule out marriage and kids for the rest of your life due to ONE bad relationship.  Keep in mind, this was a relationship that didn't even make it to marriage.  I don't see how someone can make that big of knee jerk decision without having experienced an actual marriage, engagement, or pregnancy.  The bad relationship doesn't necessarily have any bearing on the outcome of marriage with someone else or raising a family.  I don't feel what she went through with her ex would warrant this type of attitude.4-I loved catching up on the rest of the Assassins family and prior characters5-Claire brought a great aspect into this story and made the overall storyline interesting as it was a unique situation.  If I were to just read about Reese and Phillip in this story and her dancing, I would have not liked it at all.I have read all of the full length books in this series besides Fallon's story.  Out of Elle, Audrey, Piper, and Reese's story, Elle and Shea still take the cake by a landfall for me as being one of my all time favorites.  I had just re-read it before this one so maybe that is clouding my opinion.  I will continue with the series, but I suggest more proofreading or have beta readers catch this stuff before putting it out live.  Overall, great author!  I would recommend this series if you like hockey, although this didn't focus very much on hockey as the other books have.
