Dull, dull, dull.

Halfway in, I'm giving up. It probably says more about me than about the book that I'm more excited about reading a book on labor law than a romance, but still: labor law v romance. That should never be a question when deciding how to spend your free time.

After being held hostage for seven months Colt returns in the life of Zee with no memories of the fact they broke up four years earlier. He has two basic thoughts: I have war trauma and I want to have sex with that woman. Zee, from her point of view, also has two basic thoughts: I dated a man that sabotaged my company; it's my fault he did that; I must make ammends. And, Colt is still hot. (After seven months of captivity Colt probably looks like a prisoner of war after seven months.)

These thoughts are repeated over and over again. I some times have repetative thoughts. People don't like to talk to me when I do. They like to have progress in a conversation/thought process. Like I like to have progress in a romance. After all, it's the journey that counts.

Perhaps at about 40% of the story, Zee should have told Colt why they broke up, then he could have spent the rest of the book trying to make up for it. Perhaps that would have kept my interest. Or not. Labor law is actually pretty exciting.

I read a copy through NetGalley.
