Query: Book should have been shorter

I was intrigued at first by the main character, Christopher and Lee, but after reading more than half of the book I became bored. Too much angst and not enough substance. I would have liked to read more about Chistopher and his interactions with the people in his department, Judd and so on.I could understand Lee and her parenting/older woman issues, but I just found her kinda trite and goody two shoes.It the whole story line became like unto a family channel movie. Too sugary sweet with one dimensional characters.This is the first book I have read by LaVyrle Spencer, so I cannot compare it to her other books.
