I was ready to consign this to the sappy romance category part way thru, but was glad I stuck it out.
There were some interesting shifts in perspective that I won't mention, as they're spoilers that would take away from the fun of listening.
Ultimately, I liked the story because of the principled stand the protagonist took in the final reel.
Never again, indeed.
