Look, it was sexy and romantic and funny. It was also dated, needed an editor (copy and general), and had ridiculous villains. Turns out I didn't care that much. I rolled my eyes when someone in New York walked just a few blocks to get from Midtown to the Financial District and when someone is described as doing something knowingly and with intent and in the next sentence said to be doing the same thing "guilelessly." There is a lot more of that kind of stuff. But in the end, it was a beautiful 78 degree day, and I lay out on my back deck and read this cover to cover, and it was absolutely delightful.
This is the first book in the SG-5 series. The plot and characters were good and it sets the stage for the next 4 books of this series.
