Review: Was the proofreader sleeping?
Rating: 3 out of 5

The story started out so well. Even with all the paragraphs instead of dialogues. Then there was a lot of hot-cold-hot-cold guy with a volatile temper and the woman was practically perfect - gorgeous but shy virgin. Honest and sincere. She is in hiding, nearly in fear of her life. Yet she remains sweet and charming and understanding. And soooo insecure. He is gone for a day and she is almost falling apart. Then she is strong and gutsy. So, are you confused yet as to her true nature? Anyway, whether you like these combinations of almost conflicting character traits or not, both H and h are actually likable. And the story is generally interesting.So why only 3 stars?Besides my issues with the characters, there were too many typo errors. Like It's anesthetic, not aesthetic. And worst yet, actually missing words in between. Most avid readers have creative minds. That is, we have great imagination. And that's the only way you will understand some parts of the book where some words are missing -- you fill in the blanks. Then, there are some questions that were left unanswered. Unless there is a sequel? Like what happened to her mom? Did the heroine get her wedding ring back? What about her trust fund? What about his brothers? Etc. These issues may not be that important in the scale of things but it just leaves one hanging.Now if you ask me if I would recommend this book? Hmmm. Well, I would say it's not an absolute waste of time. But this book could have been cheaper. The proofreader sucks. So, if typo errors bug you, spend your hard-earned money on another book.
