Clever story potential, but drags on

The first part of the book moved quickly enough to tell the story and hold interest, but the second half included too much repeated angst over uncertain emotions, by both H and h. I think a serious rewrite of the second half would give the book a more dynamic impact. The overall story is unique, unusual for this genre.
