I enjoy Nora Roberts' fantasy trilogies, and I enjoy her writings as JD Robb, but to me the best writing Ms Roberts does is the stories like Hidden Nature. Character is on a good life path, but then something tragic happens and sometimes changes the protectory of their life, but they work to overcome it and life seems to be better in the end. I like following the story knowing that we'll have a happy ending at the end.

Sloan is a perfect main character for this setup. She seems to have her life set up and then she gets shot. She works hard to overcome, but continues to have setbacks. Eventually she heals and finds her purpose along the way. Drea, Theo, and Nash are great complimentary characters to Sloan's story. I loved Theo and Nash's story as well and am happy they found a place/family where they belong. I do think a prologue would have been fun, but also like where the story ended.
