This was the first of the Kat Martin "paranormal" books I have read. I read the other reviews of the book with concern, but I love Kat Martin and still requested it.

I think the beginning of the book is a bit of a challenge, because there's a lot of exposition and set-up so that a) the concept seems plausible and b) you understand the motivations of the characters later in the book. I won't lie - I did a lot of skimming of the first, oh, 100 pages of the book.

Plus, Ms. Martin always seems to include (usually mid-book, in my opinion) her historic/scientific/topical research in one of two fat chapter glops. There are two of them related to UFOs in this book; I skimmed those chapters and never needed to return back to the content because I'd 'missed' something. It seems like she's writing to get extra-credit. Don't worry, Ms. Martin - I know you did your research before you wrote the book...

If you get over those portions, though, it's an easy read, which more or less reads like a Kat Martin romance (hot guy with beautiful eyes realizes the meaning of love of the good woman when it is seemingly too late).
