This grew on me. I found it very stilted and awkward at the start. The relationship between Mike and Laura started very fast and rang kind of false but the characters grew on me and I found it easier once I overlooked the start of the relationship. It was just very instalove. Of course - they're also in love by the end but I found it easier to accept. The mystery was fairly straightforward, the backstory perhaps a little hard to follow without actually reading it - kind of felt like this was the second book in the series or something. I liked Dylan and the cat although beyond Laura and Mike none of the other characters were particularly fleshed out. Still, it was an easy read and relatively enjoyable.
