Let's get the reasons for my giving it a 4 instead of 5 out of the way. I expected [and wanted at that particular moment] an action plot [I mean, look at the cover!] but it's not really an action book - it's a relationship book. It has some great action SCENES but the book is mainly about Ethan and Rachel trying to recover their lives and move forward. The other reason? Ethan has some real character flaws...

But it is a good book and a good set up for the series. I enjoyed it. I'll read the next one. But a warning for those who have come in from Banks' erotica - this isn't. The h/h first sexual encounter [after her return from captivity] doesn't start until page 160...
