Very disappointing

I'm a great fan of RJ Scott, especially her Sanctuary, Bodyguards and Ellery Mountain series. This book, however, was very disappointing. For one thing, I detest books where the characters cannot stand up to their various family members. There are too many books out like this and I'm tired of that particular trope. I also wasn't enamored of any of the characters. I especially disliked Abby who kept throwing her brother under the bus and, despite her obvious intelligence, was a dithering female and acted like a prima donna. I liked Darcy, who seemed to be the only one in the whole book that was trying to make things work. The whole story seemed sort of rushed. I'm not familiar with Meredith Russell so can't comment on her skills, but this was not at all one of RJ Scott's best efforts. Not a very good start to this new series.
