I'm torn about this book. It has a lot of great dialogue, particularly between the hero and heroine. I loved the heroine. She was an awesome, competent smoke eater respected by her peers. She was also totally comfortable in her own sexuality.

I thought how the romance played out - two people enjoying the physical release and then becoming two people enjoyed spending time together outside the physical release, without a lot of emotional hangups - was a relief.

However! I thought the detail was excruciatingly minute and that there was a lot of talking about stuff I didn't care about. At times I found the story laborious.
