While the middle of the story caught my attention and flowed really well, the beginning drove me crazy with the repetition of facts of the story. I do appreciate authors who realize that I don't remember every detail, but it felt like every few paragraphs the same details were repeated. Near the end of the book, the same thing happened, but not with the same intensity as it did at the beginning.

The conflicts in the story were interesting - the one related to Brooke's inheritance and the one related to Dane's career. I was surprised to find out that the law suit and Dane's hearing were not related, especially with the timing of Dane's hearing. I could just see Sarge working up something like that. I was disappointed that there weren't any details about the aftermath of Dane's hearing. It seemed like that thread just died and it would have been nice to get some resolution to that.

For those who might care, there was a bit of talk about church and forgiveness, but not much. And there was a quote about forgiveness used at the church which is from one of the books of Mormon. The story was not preachy, nor was there anything doctrinally objectionable to this non-LDS Christian.
