This book reads much like a movie script. It sets the stage, introduces the characters, makes things go wrong (more than they were), and then as the mystery gets solved, makes more and more things go wrong. I really enjoyed the little touches that built the characters, especially the bits of Jax being a teacher.
There were a few moments that annoyed me; mostly the characters being too stupid to live and the police being particularly obtuse at times. The second half went way faster than the first – a lot was packed in but it felt a little repetitive.
I felt this was more thriller than romance but both led to a satisfying conclusion.
