I got a copy of this book in exchange for a review, and I must say that I'm glad I did. The book was well written - I didn't spot any glaring errors or typos, which I have found to be more and more common in published books lately. The story, while jarring in some places, moved along at a good clip and avoided the overly graphic details that tend to fill romance driven books. There were a couple of things that really kept me from giving this book a higher rank - the first of which was that each of the characters all spoke the same way. The Japanese girl, the doctor, the captain, the tech bro, all sounded like they came straight out of an Oxford-English speaking class. I really think that more care could have been taken in differentiating the speakers' own voices. Toward the end there was also a scene which felt like an attempt to make readers really understand that the person featured was the bad guy. Cruel and sadistic for the sake of it but with no other factors or history. Or maybe readers that have read the previous books were expecting that sort of scene and had to add on in quickly. In any case, it threw me for a loop just as the action really seemed to be getting going, and took me a minute to try and get back into the flow once I got past that chapter.

Over all, I liked the book, and will recommend it to anyone who is looking for a little less fluff and more action in their romance.
