Helpful Score: 2

Reading this book is like watching a train wreck. You know something unavoidable and horrifying is going to happen, but you just can't look away. I did get a little impatient with the heroine, who allows herself to be drawn into an obviously toxic relationship, but Hoffman gets points for daring to write about love lost and found that perhaps should have stayed lost. She loses points, however, for choosing Thoroughbred horse racing as a background plot point and not bothering to have someone check the simple facts that she is obviously unaware of.
