5.0

So, we begin this book with the return of Claire – the wife that Alex was accused of killing. Oh, but things get better. Guess who become great friends. Yeah you guessed it. They have a lot more in common than you can imagine.
Cliff-hanger alert!
Not as much explicit sex as in book 1 which makes it easier to read.

It was a very interesting setup for the series debut, and I'm glad I bought the boxset, as I really dislike cliffhanger endings. However, the sheer hatefulness of the Meg character, who does not change at all in the three books, kind of ruined the overall experience for me.
