Helpful Score: 2

If the author could quit obsessing about one of the main characters bodies, we might actually have a decent story. He has her pose nude and jump into bed with a man she met a few hours before "even though she knows it's not going anywhere". Any woman who actually does this does not behave in the manner this woman does. She goes from being independent and surviving on her own in NY to being totally dependent on this man she doesn't know. Amazing! Are we actually supposed to believe this? He describes her every bodily feature, but we are left wondering if she has a brain.
The other main character seems underdeveloped. He has no past, no future ambitions. You're not sure if he is anything other than an intelligent slug until our author decides to turn him into an action hero. Amazing!
I wouldn't read another of his books. I can usually finish this type of book in a few hours.... this one took me 4 days. I kept waiting for it to get better. I can not say who is the bigger fool, me or the person who wrote this book.
