Query: Painful conclusion to a promising trilogy

The third and final book in this trilogy, The Devil's Web had solid bones, but failed to live up to its potential. Focusing on the characters of Madelaine and James, first introduced inThe Gilded Web, Devil tries to reconcile the obsession and the hatred these two people feel for each other. Balogh tries to create passionate tension that moves back and forth between two people who can't talk about their feelings or even to each other without causing an argument. Unfortunately, she never seems to find her rhythm.In previous books, I've enjoyed Balogh's writing and her stories. The Devil's Web fails to live up to the standard I've come to expect when I pick up one of her books.
