Review: Slow set up

This story follows Fiona Drazen whom we first met in Songs of Submission. The seeming wild child alcoholic/drug addict older sister to Jonathan. The setting of the story is just after the car accident involving Jonathan's teenage girlfriend, Rachel, that scarred him. You DO NOT need to read Songs of Submission, this series can be a stand alone series.While anything involving a Drazen you just know is going to be terrific, this series started off a little slow for me and I didn't connect with the characters like I have in this authors previous books. When you get to the end of the serial and don't realize it's a "cliffhanger" until you read the authors note stating it is-yeah, that.It just seemed to have so many flashback tidbits, and no real character or plot development for me in the present. Maybe that is due to the length or the story set-up involved, I can't pinpoint it.I loved Songs of Submission and am eagerly awaiting the next installment in Theresa's story from Spin, so I will give this one more chance with the next book.
