Potential spoiler in review - but I am keeping it vagueThis was an okay book.  I liked the premise.  It felt a little rushed to me though, and a little bit stilted and off.There were some things that just struck me as strange.  Garen the old world boss that shows up and and is wearing loafers with a sweat shirt.  Maybe that is nit picky, but it jarred me out of the scene b/c I did not think it flowed.  Also when there is a time in the book when she is injured he sits and has this conversation while holding her in his arms - WTH??? Take her off to get fixed!!  It just seems like parts that should have had urgency did not, and other parts where we could use some of those details were glossed over.  The other issue was that Garen being who he was, how could she fight someone he had thought was a "tough opponent" in the past and do well???  I would have bumped this up to 3.5 or 4 stars if I had not had moments that pulled me out of the scene.I thought her confusion over the relationship was very well done.  I also liked the idea of the company.Overall I liked the book. I did read it cover to cover and it kept me interested in the outcome. This does not make me feel the need to rush out and purchase other books.
