Alice is a young woman whose life is all work and no play. Ricky is another younger woman whose work is play. They meet and fall madly in love.

logical manner, the dialogue is nice, and the two main characters are pretty well fleshed out. But on the other hand the story seems very choppy. Sometimes the reader gets a ton of info for no apparent reason, really detailed descriptions of something or something that happens and other times stuff just seems to get skipped over.

As for the other characters, they all seem to be the same, save for Christine, they're there just to propel the main characters' stories forward and their little subplots don't even get wrapped up.

It just seemed like an unfinished book. A good kernel of a plot that could have been expanded on, but wasn't.
