I had a hard time getting into this one. Kajika and Frankie were interesting enough as they built a relationship, but the surrounding story was disjointed at times with random things happening around them throughout. None of the events occurring around them seem to have anything to do with the relationship, other than Frankie's very unlikable partner and her problems with Kajika. The way they met was a bit extreme, but that isn't necessarily a deal-breaker for me. The thing about the romance that bothered me most was Frankie's insecurities. Given his age and profession, his insecurity in the relationship seems out of character at best. The southern dialect throughout the book is a bit hit or miss - sometimes it's there, sometimes not. I did notice the very frequent use of the words m'kay and okay, which became so tedious as to become a distraction. There are other words that would have worked as well that would've broken the monotony a bit. However, that is a personal pet peeve and should be taken for just that.
