I felt the same way about Rhapsody as you did. Exactly the same way. I really did like the other two guys though.
I wouldn't try reading those books again. It did feel like trashy romance. I was embarrassed that I read all three. I don't know why I hoped it would get better. It has been too long for me to remember what kept me going.

the only problem i ever had was the way she would sometimes write his dialogue as if he was some bratty teenager. otherwise i think he was easily the best character in the series.
i only read the third book for completeness just to see how she handled the whole "track down and kill the f'dor" storyline. now that i've finished it, i can get rid of that book once and for all

I thought I'd read the first two only, but from your description I've also read the third.
