1.5 stars -- and I feel kind of bad about that, b/c I'm generally not a picky person. But the main characters drove me bonkers. I *hated* Plato -- and I tolerate an awful lot from the males in Harlequin books... But it just felt like there wasn't much redeemable about him. At all.... If that had been the worst of it though, it would have been a 2.5 star book. But Rose just compounded...she changed her mind about how she was feeling and what she was feeling so many times back and forth and back and forth that I started to feel whiplash. So yeah, needless to say I am proud of myself for finishing this book and it was sadly just not right for me...
