Karina Halle is a good writer. This is a good book; it may even be a four star one. It's just not my kind of book. I'm not really into the our-love-is-amazing-and-will-conquer-all type of stories, though I quite liked the crime and action elements. And the sex. As a parent though, the part of the storyline relating to Camden's son was just ick and completely unrealistic and one dimensional to me from the beginning of the series. To me, no one who loves their son immensely is going to let the son be raised by a horrible woman who possibly puts his life in danger. I don't understand why Camden ever left Ben rather than, say, make a deal with the cops? I would exhaust every single option ever to keep my kid safe, as would most parents.
