I didn't love this book as much as the previous three. I felt like the story dragged a bit and Annie never seems to grow or develop through the series. She seems naive and has so little impulse control I can't figure out why these two guys like her so much. Speaking of the two guys, the love triangle is getting old and you can't help but wish that Annie would pick one already. The details about art and the history of San Francisco are interesting but not enough to overcome the sluggishness of the story. This is probably the last of the series, I wish it had ended with more resolution.
