If anyone touched me on my “nape” as much as the characters in these books do, I would start hitting them. Why did we need to shorten “the nape of her neck” to “her nape” anyhow? Is there some geographic area where it is normal to call it “his nape” full stop?
Unpleasant shiver.

What happened to this easygoing book? First it got boring boring boring and now this sentence:
“Val waited, even as he knew the female gears in her mind were whizzing about, perfectly recalling every God’s blessed word he’d ever uttered about making furniture or any other damned thing of the smallest relevance to his latest admission.”
The FEMALE GEARS IN HER MIND??

Oh, my, do I hate these characters and the lack of historical attitudes here. The men are all-knowing and hyper protective, they apparently know all about the rhythm method and discuss menstruation constantly, the women have vast stores of guilt and talk to eachother as though they live in a modern town where everyone belongs to the same cult and women know how they desperately need men to get by.
