Yes but we do have Bodie's pov quite alot at the start, and even in the last chapter, when he woke from sleep, so it's not impossible!
I think we have Bodie's pov quite a lot early on - I remember thinking we heard him much more than Doyle at one point, though I don't think we did really, it just felt like that for a while. In theory the story seems as if it's meant to be more about Doyle than Bodie, because it starts of with Doyle's backstory and its his past that we're dealing with for alot of the story - except that Bodie's past is also there, just introduced differently, and actually feeling a bit uneven for me because of if. We do get Bodie thinking complimentary things about Doyle too, but because Bodie seems to have been set up as tougher/more confident etc., they stand out less in contrast...
I always thought Angelfish was more focused on Doyle and so probably liked him better, but someone else said they thought she liked Bodie better, so who knows! And yes, I hope the same thing for my writing! (And I always wonder how I'd measure up to my own comments about stories, too! *g*)
