Even as a Trekkie, I am not a huge fan of this book. The men, especially young Riker, are written to be sexist & chauvinistic, and not at all in line with the ideals of Starfleet. A lot of the "romantic" scenes made me cringe because of the emphasis on rhetoric like "you will love me and I will continue to pursue you" that call up issues of consent and harassment. And the plot gets overly complicated at the end, to the point where it feels like a burden to continue.
I love Star Trek and I like the Riker/Troi relationship in general, but this book isn't it and I'm mad that it got to be titled "Imzadi" just because it was the first Riker/Troi book. :/
