Review: Not exactly a feel good romance

This book has really puzzled me.First of all, let me say that this is NOT a complete story.  It very abruptly comes to an unceremonious end.  So much so that I went through the process of downloading it again to my Kindle because I couldn't possibly believe that it was meant to be the end.  Nothing is resolved.  At least half of the characters are very unhappy.  No questions are answered.It just stops.Apparently, the author intends that you will continue on to the second in the series - A Maxwell Mourned.If it hadn't been for the fact I could borrow the 2nd book for free with my Prime Membership, I probably would've just walked away.  I just find myself left so ridiculously unsatisfied that I feel the need to continue just for my own piece of mind.That being said, this is not a warm, fuzzy love story.  Horrible, unspeakable things happen to very nice people.  No one gets a happy ending.  If you are in the mood for a depressing read, this one will do the trick.  Otherwise, you might want to pass.Update:  Ok - so I went on to read book 2, and I've moved my review up to 3 starts from 2.  It doesn't really get any better as you continue on, but things at least get resolved.  It appears that this was actually ONE novel, split into 3 parts.  So, my recommendation is NOT TO START unless you plan on purchasing all three pieces.  Reading all 3 is the only way you will be able to get any satisfaction with this story whatsoever.  Each of the first two parts just ends.  Abruptly.  Like this review....
