I enjoyed the premise of this book so much more than I enjoyed the books itself and it took me a while to pinpoint why. And I've come to the conclusion that I don't feel like we got enough screen time to really appreciate either storyline. Darren and Kendal didn't really feel like they had that much of a connection and I was hoping to see it grow. While it 'grew' in the sense that they got together, the feelings didn't feel like they developed. I felt the same about Decklee and Mickinlee. Imagine how strong and heartbreaking that storyline could have been compared to what we were given. 

The potential was there and I did enjoy the read. I was hoping for more of a connection to the characters that what were given.
