I love Nora Roberts and have been reading her books for probably a dozen years. Although she didn't cover any new ground in this book, that's fine with me because I enjoyed the characters of Cilla and Ford. I always love the focus on family relationships in Roberts' books, and she definitely created a character with Spock!My only dislike of the story was how hurried it was in the end - the sweet relationship between Cilla and Ford came to a screeching halt and all of a sudden there was a twist and an unexpected bad guy...and this didn't ring true to me or to the story line. However (and this could just be me), I enjoyed the book overall - it was just the last 30 or so pages that disappointed me.
