So much angsty, Neve loves her but won't let herself have her, I'm glad she goes to therapy to heal enough to get the girl in the end.

The vocabulary breadth this book covers is the most impressive part of it. Not that crazy about the story in general or the romance but it was an easy read.

Wow. My first book by this author and it will not be my last. Great characters and plot. I appreciated the psychological issues involved and the chess metaphor.
Highly recommend.
