I don't like knocking debut books and this is apparently one but I think that the story needed a bit more of an edit. I found it too wordy and too repetitive in parts. The premise is very good and unusual. Our h is a paraplegic that hasn't let life beat her down. She manages her condition with dignity and grace plus she's very courageous. The H is good guy but has had to deal with a lot in his life too and he's not as brave as the h in the beginning. So much happens in this story that at times it reminded me of a YA. Lots of drama. The characters were likeable and honourable and even the misunderstanding was quickly dealt with.+++Spoiler+++I had a bit of a problem with the timeline of this story. It happens very, very quickly. I do believe in love at first sight but becoming foster parents within a few weeks stretched it a bit for me. The speed at which everything happens, including adoption, marriage etc was unrealistic.I think it was a good first effort and I appreciated that it was clean. I'd read more by this author.
