I'm reading The Sleeping God by the same author now, and I'm starting to get a little irritated, without knowing precisely why.
Figured it out. The male lead is a little too ineffectual. He and his Brother are obviously a committed team -- it's been said several times with various riffs on the Bond Between Brothers and especially those who are Partnered -- but I can't figure out why his Brother puts up with him. There's no. . .electricity between them. Even Old Married Folks have some zap. Still, I'll give it that 50 pages more.
